Reimbursements for Health Workforce funded registrars

Any registrar funded by Health Workforce who wishes to complete a practical course NOT organised by the College must FIRST get prior approval from the office for reimbursement.
If you organise a course for yourself and do not get confirmation from the office that we will reimburse your costs (or part thereof), you run the risk of not having costs (or part thereof) reimbursed.
