The bursaries are offered on a first-come-first-served basis, at the point of receipt of your completed short course application, and receipt of the required evidence of employment within the NHS. NHS Bursaries are available for selected Short Courses in Health Sciences only (and not for courses taken as part of an MSc, PG Dip or PG Cert).

To apply for this bursary, please upload a scan/photocopy of your NHS staff card, or an official letter from your employer on headed paper, along with your course application form. Your NHS card and/or letter should show that you are currently employed within the NHS.

If you are an employee of both the NHS and Oxford University, please contact us directly at cpdhealth@conted.ox.ac.uk for further information about the specific bursary and discounts available to you. You can do this after you have submitted your application and submit any relevant evidence via email at a later date.

Please note: If you are an ‘Academic Clinical Fellow’ and already in receipt of OUCAGS funding, you will not also be eligible for the 20% NHS bursary.
