Dear member
The accompanying information on Fellowship opportunities in colorectal surgery in the UK represents a synthesis of information provided by units currently offering such positions. This information has been collated by the Education and Training Committee over the last 18 months. Many thanks to all those of you who completed forms for their units. Anyone who missed out on this process, lost the form, or has set up a fellowship since the process started can contact me direct (j.e.hartley@hull.ac.uk) and I will send them the assessment information. Alternatively a downloadable application form is posted below.
Additional training in specialist colon and rectal surgery either as an out of programme experience (OOPE) or post award of CCT, is an option that an increasing number of trainees are pursuing. The Committee hope that the information provided through this web page will be of use to future trainees seeking such opportunities.
We are currently working on a similar database of overseas centres with a track record of offering UK trainees fellowship opportunities in colorectal surgery. Dermot Burke has developed a proforma in order to collate information which the Committee felt might be useful to further trainees. This form is also available through this webpage. It is hoped that trainees returning from overseas will complete this proforma in order for us to build up a picture of what’s on offer for trainees who are seeking a year abroad. In the short term please encourage any trainees within your unit who have recently spent time overseas to spend a few minutes completing the proforma in order to get this process kick started.
