    Can you make someone do training if they are out on sick note from doctor. I have been told I have to attend compulsory training tomorrow but I am just not up to it. I won't be able to attend work if I do not do this training until it is back on again which could be another month.

    Quite right. However they could lay you off until the training come around again (or permanently) if you've been there under a year. By having a medical cert they are actually obliged to keep you off now.

    Yup agree with this, if the training is mandated as being essential for your job or there is a deadline and you miss it, then you can expect to be on unpaid leave until it comes around or let go if you are there less than a year.
