We really value high-quality care and patient safety. Therefore, we are working hard to enhance your induction into the RUH and the process of completing your mandatory training.
You will be requested to complete mandatory training before you start at the RUH and will receive an email at the start of July advising when F1 pre-hire training is available to access.
The deadline to complete F1 pre-hire training is Thursday 24 July 2025. For further information about accessing and completing F1 Pre-Hire training please click here.
Important: please do not use mobile phones to complete your eLearning in case of connectivity issues. We also recommend taking photos or screen shots of your final result page in each course. If possible include the date shown in the right hand bottom corner of your screen.
If you are sent information from NHS England about registering on their system to complete an eLearning for Health e-induction package please do not complete it in this way. Access to the package will be given via the RUH's learning management system in the same way as your other eLearning.
Your shadowing period at the RUH will commence on Monday 28 July 2025 and will incorporate your induction welcome essential information, shadowing time and clinical skills training.

Accessing and Completing F1 Pre-Hire Training
All RUH Foundation Year 1 doctors are requested to complete pre-hire training on our learning management system LearnTogether, prior to starting their shadowing period.
You will be paid for the standard time to complete pre-hire training and payment will be made in your August salary. You will be paid for all fully completed eLearning. Where there is an associated assessment this must also be passed - partially completed and failed modules will not be paid.
If you do not complete all the pre-hire training modules prior to starting your shadowing period you will be expected to complete any remaining modules in the first month of joining the RUH. Please note, you will not be able to claim payment for any training modules completed after the F1 pre-hire training deadline.
Please note: when you have completed all of the required pre hire mandatory eLearning modules your % compliance in LearnTogether should be 88%. You will be able to achieve 100% compliance after you have attended the face to face resuscitation and Oliver McGowan training.
Millennium Training
Your training for the RUH’s electronic patient record (Millennium) will also be available via LearnTogether and details of how you can complete this will be sent in a separate email from the IT Training dept.
Resuscitation Training
F1 doctors are required to complete both Adult and Paediatric Basic Life Support training. This requires completion of Adult & Paeds Theory eLearning modules during your pre-hire training period and attendance on face-to-face practical sessions scheduled during your shadowing period. It is important that you choose the following BLS courses to access the correct Theory eLearning modules:
- Adult Basic Life Support Training & Test - eLearning & classroom
