Guidance note:

(i)

Failure to register the training contract could mean that not all of the time will count, and your admission to the roll could be delayed.

(ii)

In accordance with regulation 6.1(g) of the SRA Training Regulations Part 2 - Training Provider Regulations, we will not register a training contract if you are paid a salary less than our prescribed minimum, which we review each year and may change. We will allow the cash value of benefits against the minimum salary.
