We can offer excellent opportunities to develop a range of skills including:

- guideline development.
Training placements are available both at NICE’s Manchester and London offices, as well as remotely.

Placements encourage a combination of remote working, with regular visits to the office to build relationships and develop an understanding of the complex organisation that NICE is. This is particularly important for placements of under 9 months.
