Each University will take on one, two or four trainees. Successful candidates will complete their first and third placements with their host university. The second placement will be with another partner university from within your region.

During the application process applicants will be asked whether they are willing to consider becoming a graduate trainee at another university. Some universities will be recruiting graduate trainees from any of the partner universities.
