thanks fo rreply
just to clarify that I am switching from tier 1 dep to tier 2.
Rang UKBA today they were not so sure themselves!!!!
The guidance notes of Tier 2 say that any Tier 1 category can switch into Tier one , however does not mention dependents.[as it spec mentions dependents of tier 4]

Very confused now

Hi,
Does anyone know, who sponsors for training post for a doctor in training, is it the deanery or the employing trust?
Thanks
