Overview
The RCPI Trainees Committee is the ‘voice’ of Trainees in RCPI. We represent Trainees on many RCPI Committees and Boards throughout different areas of the College. We are also actively involved in the Steering Group for Retaining Medical Talent in Ireland, the EU Working Time Directive and numerous other working groups.
The RCPI Trainees Committee has always had an active interest in postgraduate specialist training and acts as an important interface between Trainees and RCPI. Our goal is to represent Trainees’ interests and work towards improving training.
We are also responsible for the organisation of the following awards and prizes:
- The Corrigan Medal
- The David Mitchell Award
- The William Stokes Award
- The Dorothy Stopford Price Medal
- The Arthur Eakins Award
- The Kate McGarry Prize

Every year we host National Education Day for Doctors in Training, the highlight event of the RCPI Trainee Calendar. At the annual event, Trainees showcase their excellence in research, case study and clinical audit, whilst learning from leaders in health and social care, technology and other areas of interest.
National Education Day for Doctors in Training will take place on Friday, 23 May 2025 in RCPI, No. 6 Kildare Street.
