I work as a nurse for the NHS and in theory we can do training during working hours or be paid to do it during our time off.
The problem is that there are not enough staff to allow people to be absent doing training. And work itself is so stressful that people need time to rest during their precious time off and not spend it doing training!

And additional training on Diabetes for nurses is not on the (long) list of mandatory training that we all have to do. It is available but it is not mandatory. Maybe it should be
That's my point exactly!
Training is not a privilege it's a requirement to do a job and therefore it should take place in working hours and paid for by the employer!
