Medical Training Initiative

The Medical Training Initiative (MTI) is a mutually beneficial scheme that provides doctors from all over the world with the opportunity to work and train in the UK, while giving hospitals a high-quality, longer-term alternative to using locums to fill rota gaps.

The scheme facilitates General Medical Council (GMC) registration and tier 5 (Government Authorised Exchange) visa for those eligible. 

The RCP scheme is the largest of all UK college programmes, with approximately 300 international medical graduates currently working in the UK.
