What is the Exit Qualification from the Training Grade?
All formal training programmes referred to above lead, via an examination coupled with assessments by the in-service training supervisor, to a formal qualification; otherwise, a Certificate from the British Association of Audiological Scientists or the Diploma of the Institution of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM), (medical physicists, clinical engineers) as appropriate. This constitutes the qualification which assists the trainee to secure a post in the specialty at Grade B.
