Enrolment with the Faculty
All trainees in public health training programmes are required to enrol with the Faculty of Public Health (FPH) within three months of commencement of training.
Trainees must enrol in order to qualify for a Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) in the specialty of public health, or to register as a Generalist Specialist with the UK Public Health Register.
Trainees in formal training programmes will not be able to sit the Part A and Part B MFPH examinations unless they are enrolled with FPH.
The purpose of enrolment
The enrolment process enables FPH to oversee and monitor the progress of trainees throughout their training and maintain national standards of training by ensuring the excellence of the training provided in programmes.
It is not possible to enrol for higher medical training from a locum or temporary appointment, irrespective of grade.
Please note that enrolment with FPH is different to Trainee Membership of FPH.
