Education
Cleveland Clinic London’s education programmes focus on providing continued professional development for all caregivers, as well as education for external organisations and people. This reflects our outreach into the communities we serve in London and beyond.
Our programmes strongly emphasize the importance of educating the next generation of clinicians and healthcare providers — while expanding the skills and knowledge of working healthcare professionals.
From exceptional training for medical professionals to groundbreaking research, we’re committed to helping shape the future of UK healthcare through our educational and research initiatives.
Medical Student Programmes
We partner with medical schools to offer placements for student-selected components. Using rigorous curricula — led by some of London’s leading consultants — students receive high quality learning within our team-based and patient-centred care model. Students can:
- Learn alongside some of the best consultants in the world, studying best practices and the latest developments in medical care
- Collaborate across disciplines throughout Cleveland Clinic, globally

Observerships
Cleveland Clinic London regularly treats patients requiring complex care. This allows us to provide surgical immersion opportunities with expert surgeons giving the chance to see uncommon and complex cases as well as complex medical care, ICU and rehabilitation. Observerships are open to UK or international applicants by completion of an application form.
Fellowships
Cleveland Clinic London offers several fellowship tracks covering clinical and non-clinical training, research and education. Opportunities include clinical and non-clinical PhD studentships in collaboration with prestigious HEIs, post-doctoral clinical research fellowships, education and teaching fellowships. We also provide ‘post-CCT’ advanced surgical fellowship opportunities. Some of our fellowships include the opportunity to travel to other Cleveland Clinic locations worldwide to benefit from our global clinical and scientific expertise. Our fellowships are focused on providing career development opportunities at all levels.
Continuing Professional Education
For 80 years, we have been committed to educating and developing physicians, nurses and other medical professionals worldwide. Our continuing education programmes raise the standard of healthcare. We empower all our caregivers and other UK healthcare professionals to build advanced knowledge and skills. We do this by hosting:
- Speciality-specific symposia and conferences
- Surgical immersion courses
- A three times per year Cleveland Clinic Course providing the latest medical updates for general practitioners
- Multidisciplinary seminars
- Online resources including on-demand webinar and podcasts
Across all Cleveland Clinic locations, our caregivers can access programmes from our Center for Continuing Education.
In the UK, we partner with the Royal Colleges, the NHS and other organisations to develop continuing education programmes — whether you work at Cleveland Clinic London or elsewhere in the UK.
Community Engagement Programmes
Supporting the community has always been a core focus at Cleveland Clinic. In London, we are collaborating with local leaders to deliver health education aimed at addressing the effects of social determinants of health. By working alongside partners who share our dedication, we strive to foster a healthier, more thriving community for all.
