The Royal College of
Psychiatrists coordinates national recruitment to core
psychiatry training at year 1 (CT1) and to specialty training
at year 4 (ST4) in all six psychiatric specialties in England.
Wales participates in national recruitment at CT1 level only.
Northern Ireland and Scotland continue
to operate their own application systems for recruitment
to psychiatry. To find out more about training
opportunities in those countries please visit the relevant
websites: Northern
Ireland Medical and Dental Training
Agency and Scottish
Medical Training.
This website contains all the relevant information,
including eligibility, participating deaneries, the sample
application form, interviews and estimated number of vacancies.
Please use the links to the left of this page to access the
required information.
If you are interested in CT1 / ST4
training in psychiatry in England or CT1 training in
Wales you will only be able to apply for training posts through
the
College online recruitment portal.

note: we are only able to report on the number
of posts filled through national recruitment. The final fill rate
in each deanery may be higher following subsequent local
recruitment rounds not managed by the College.
