Earn before you learn
The Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust offer the opportunity to work in the Trust as a paid healthcare support worker to gain practical experience before the start of the programme in April.

To take advantage of this scheme, we recommend that you apply to study before the end of December.

After successful application, interview and acceptance of offer to study on this course, you can start paid shifts before the programme begins in April.

Earn whilst you learn
On days when there is no teaching, you will have the opportunity to work shifts in the hospital trust as a paid healthcare support worker. Please note that you will need to pass your first practice placement to be eligible for employment on this scheme.

I'm curious to hear from anyone who has attended the open days or participated in the webinars. What was your experience like? And for those already part of the program or working at the Mid Yorkshire NHS Trust, what insights can you share about the practical aspects of the course and the support available to students?

I went to the open day 2 weeks ago. Everyone was welcoming. A second year student toured me around and answered all of my questions. It is a small cohort which attracted me more because I feel like I won’t have to share the tutors with so many students. I would get one to one if I need it. The whole vibes I get is that you will be supported throughout. I have now been given a place following an interview.
Hey @Filinurse how are you?

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely message, I'm so glad you had a great experience, and massive congrats on receiving a place!! 🎉

Hi i have been offered a place on the adult nursing course at Bradford to start in September 24

I have my heart set on doing the mid yorks course that starts in April 25. They haven’t given me a date for this interview yet and im worried about delaying my response to the other offer - does anyone know when the mid yorks interviews are held?

Also any advice appreciated about the difference between the two courses. I am a mature student with 2 children and financial commitments so would need to work the odd shift to pay the bills.

Can anyone give an example of their timetables? It’s important to be around for my children too

Thank you

Hi, I was offered both September intake and Midyorks. My interview was in March I think. If you do Midyorks one then we will be in the same course! I’m a matured student also with 2 young kids so we have a lot in common.

What happened with me was they interviewed me for the September intake, during the interview I told them my main choice was Mid Yorks. So the interviewer arranged another interview for the Midyorks program. You can do that too. I joined the Student Nurses UK group on facebook for timetables etc. there are a few Midyorkshire students there. X
