PROGRAM OVERVIEW
What this program offers
A Trialect-administered, fee-paying clinical and research placement with Professor Pietro Randelli in Milan. It is listed separately from the SECEC centre directory and is not presented as a salaried hospital post or as SECEC-accredited fellowship training.
BENEFITS & SUPPORT
Published benefits and support
Trialect states that merit applicants may compete for tuition-fee coverage only. Workplace-liability and health insurance remain mandatory, and travel and living expenses are not included.
Benefits may depend on appointment type, training level, visa status and the active academic year. OrthoFellow keeps stipend and benefits separate so a salary figure is not mistaken for the full package.
ACCOMMODATION & RELOCATION

⌂
Trialect lists nearby hotel and third-party housing suggestions but states that it does not arrange accommodation; availability and any quoted room rate must be confirmed independently.
Housing availability, rent, deposits, utilities and relocation support can change by intake and appointment type. OrthoFellow does not estimate living costs unless an official source publishes them.
