Trainees' Charter

Abstract

The College since its inception has striven to ensure the highest standards of psychiatric training and education. We are aware, however, that these training recommendations are not as widely known as we would like. The objective of the Collegiate Trainees' Committee Trainees' Charter is to disseminate as widely as possible a brief document on training that draws together strands from other documents including the Statement on Approval of Training Schemes for General Professional Training for the MRCPsych. This Charter has the fun support of the Court of Electors. The intention is to raise awareness about training problems and encourage trainees to be more proactive in ensuring that their training needs are met. Only by providing the best possible level of postgraduate training can we ensure the standard of patient service we would wish and the public increasingly expect.
