The UKFPO offers to signpost these local tasters via their website atwww.foundationprogramme.nhs.uk in the careers advice section.3. Tasters in F1In order to ensure that tasters are of benefit to foundation doctors when making timelycareer decisions, it may be helpful to make them accessible in the F1 year as well as F2. Thisis already established in some foundation schools. In practical terms, consideration could begiven to borrowing some study leave entitlement from the trainee’s F2 year. This opportunityis best met by development of local arrangements to enable more tasters to be undertakenbefore specialty applications are made.The UK Foundation Programme: Reference Guide 73
