A few days ago, in a major relief to DrNB trainees and DNB SS candidates, the NBE had revised advisory retracting the much anticipated indefinite mandatory training extension.

Earlier than that, the NBE had clarified that all Final Year DrNB Super Specialty trainees of the 2018 batch will have to continue to discharge the duties in this time of National exigency as may be prescribed by their hospitals, for the period as mandated as under:

"DrNB Super Specialty trainees, till fresh batches of DrNB Super Specialty trainees for 2021 admission session have joined at respective hospitals or counseling for NEET-SS 2021 is concluded, whichever is earlier."

However, the NBE has now decided that all Final Year DrNB Super-specialty trainees who were admitted in 2018 academic year will have to continue to discharge their duties at their respective institutes of DrNB training, till 15th August 2021 or completion of their DrNB Final practical examinations, whichever is EARLIER.

The DrNB Final Theory Examinations of the December 2020 session have been concluded. Results for the same are likely to be declared by 15th July 2021. The DrNB Practical Examinations are likely to be concluded by 15th August 2021.

"The trainees must complete 3 months of mandatory extension as prescribed vide NBE notice dated 18.01.2021, over and above their three years of training as per NBE regulations. This shall be irrespective of the date of their practical examination. This must be ensured by every Institution and Training Completion Certificate (TCC) must be issued accordingly.
Depending on the requirements of the host institution and consent of the trainees, they may continue to work beyond the date of conclusion of their training (as per the TCC at the respective Institutions) till the joining of the new first year candidates. The terms and conditions of this working arrangement commencing after completion of training, will be independent of the original training contract and shall not involve the NBE," the advisory had stated.

The NBE Accredited hospitals are required to pay the stipend to the trainees as per the stipend guidelines of NBE during the extended period of training, stated the notice.

NBE shall make all attempts to allocate the centres for DrNB Final Practical examinations of December 2020 session for theory qualified trainees within the state of their DrNB training or nearby states, as per availability of centres, the NBE added.
