After the migration, you will need to register as a new user on the NHS Sussex platform to access the available content.

Skip Intro Text

Health and care depends on people, people with the right skills, in the right place at the right time. SPECS is designed to support our current and future clinical (non-medical) colleagues to achieve this.

It provides access to the right information, training, and development opportunities and supports our ambition of “One Workforce” for Sussex, by bringing all sectors together within a mutually supportive learning environment.

The platform is for the benefit of the current and future workforce in Sussex, and as such we are always happy to receive ideas, suggestions, and feedback. Please get in touch via our contact page and we will support your request.
