Network 75 Work-Based Degree Placement Programme

NHS Wales Performance and Improvement Value Transformation division is offering a five-year Network 75 placement through the University of South Wales. This combined work placement and part-time study scheme enables students to earn a degree while gaining practical experience without excessive debt, particularly benefiting individuals from underprivileged backgrounds. The selected student trainee will attend university twice weekly and work at the NHS placement three days per week during term time, increasing to five days per week during university holidays. Participants must pass annual examinations, complete experiential rotational placements with clear objectives, and participate in annual joint appraisals with the University of South Wales to remain on the programme. This opportunity supports equitable access to higher education across Wales and provides NHS Wales with a motivated trainee who develops valuable skills through combined academic learning and hands-on workplace experience.
