About us

EPUT has recently won the HSJ Workforce Initiative of the Year award alongside two partner NHS Trusts for the development of the Clinical Associate in Psychology role. The CAP programme has excellent links to the national Group of Trainers in CAPs as well as to the professional body, the British Psychological Society. We work closely with other training providers (universities) and with partner employers (regional NHS Trusts) who have apprentices registered on our programme. The post holder will have the opportunity to build their engagement with these wider networks, offering excellent opportunities for taking a leadership role in these wider systems.

The Trust offers excellent support for staff CPD, and post holders will be supported to further develop their academic a research portfolio. The CAP programme includes learners from across Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Essex and beyond and we have in place an innovative 'blended learning' approach to the teaching delivery, which includes both remote online delivery and place-based delivery. While the programme largely operates from Epping and Brentwood, which is easily accessible via the M25 and rail links, the staff team are able to do a significant proportion of their work remotely and there are opportunities for flexible working arrangements.
