Global Radiologists Programme

Health Education England’s Directorate of Education and Quality (DEQ) is working with healthcare providers globally to improve the quality and volume of the NHS workforce through global education and workplace exchanges.

Through the Global Radiologists Programmes, HEE offers an educational programme for healthcare professionals from other countries who would like to spend three years in the UK on an earn, learn, and return scheme. The programmes create dynamic partnerships and build lasting relationships with global healthcare organisations and healthcare professionals alike.

The Global Radiologists Programme, as part of the wider Cancer and Diagnostics programme, is designed to support the development and learning of healthcare professionals who have experience caring for people with cancer. This programme provides a route for independently competent doctors in general duties who have worked in radiology for around 5 years and completed Diplomate of the National Board (DNB) or equivalent, and subsequently the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists exam (FRCR), to come and work in the NHS on an 'Earn, Learn, Return' basis for a period of three years; and develop a specialist interest while delivering service work.
