Retrospective applications and expenses

Created by Karolina Wlodowska, Modified on Thu, 7 Aug at 4:13 AM by Karolina Wlodowska

Per the Study Leave Policy, all study leave must be applied for in advance with at least 6 weeks notice, of the leave taking place: you will not be able to submit a retrospective leave request on Accent Leave Manager, and will trigger an error. If you are attempting to submit a leave request for an activity that has already taken place or add expenses after submitting an application, please contact your local Study Leave Coordinator at the Trust or GP Programme Office, confirming the following:


  • Your full name
  • Your GMC/GDC/PH number (if applicable)
  • The date/s of study leave
  • The activity you are applying for
  • A breakdown of any expenses you wish to claim - individual amounts for travel (public transport cost or number of miles), accommodation, subsistence and course fee
  • The venue, course provider, and any other details to be included in your application
  • The reason/s why your request was not submitted prospectively.


Prospective applications must also be submitted if you are not requesting any time off, but are requesting expenses. Retrospective applications will only be considered in exceptional circumstances.
