RCPI Trainers play a crucial role in the delivery of our BST, HST and International training programmes. They guide our trainees along the path to becoming a specialist and help the next generation of medical leaders reach their full potential.
As an RCPI Trainer, you have access to motivated, highly skilled trainees who have been successfully appointed following a competitive process. These are trainees who will contribute to a high-quality service. We will provide you with advice, training and support through our Physicians and Trainers: Essential Skills Programme. This will equip you to navigate the training environment and to optimise both your experience and that of the trainee.
Your ongoing role is supported by phased refresher training and a comprehensive trainer hub which can be accessed here. This repository holds resources and supports available to RCPI Trainer as well as a published copy of the Trainer Agreement.
Being an RCPI Trainer is a rewarding experience however, we understand matters may arise such as a trainee in difficulty and RCPI is committed to supporting you through any difficulties which may arise. There are robust and regularly reviewed policies in place as well as administrative and faculty support to take action in such events.
