Event Information

Application for higher training can seem like a daunting process for both trainees and the supervisors who wish to support them.­­

This webinar focuses on the evidence for self-assessment which counts for 17.5% of the total score in ranking for ST4 posts. This session is not only for applicants in the current round or hoping to apply in the coming months, but also for core trainees in CT2 or CT3 years in order to plan their experience to build a strong set of evidence.

We would also encourage clinical and educational supervisors and core TPDs to join the session, to understand ways in which they can help their core trainees prepare in advance for an ST4 application.

A lot of focus in core training is understandably on the MRCPsych examinations which are mandatory for entry to higher training. We hope this session will provide information about the other aspects of skills, training, and experience which CTs in psychiatry can build on, to put them on a strong platform for ST4 entrance.
