South of England Cardiology Training Day
Friday 27th February, 2009
Wolfson Lecture Theatre, Royal College of Physicians, London
The Chairmen of the Specialist Training Committees in Cardiology for Thames, Cambridge, Oxford and Wessex regions have arranged a south of England SpR Training Day, to be held on Friday 27thFebruary, 2009, at the Royal College of Physicians, London.
This event is supported by each of the relevant Deaneries and all Trainees in Cardiology will be expected to attend. A register will be taken at the end of the day and attendance certificates issued. The Training Day will be included as part of the Formal Training Programme organised by each of the Specialist Training Committees.
Space in the lecture theatre is limited. We are inviting all specialist registrars who hold an NTN, as well as all LAT post holders. Trainees holding an NTN, currently doing research, are also welcome. If there is sufficient space we would be happy to accept applications from trainees currently in research but not holding an NTN.
For early registrants, there is an opportunity to attend either a Workshop, with a display of Intra-Aortic Balloon Pumps, which will be run by Dr Alun Harcombe, or to participate in the angioplasty simulator Sessions. Please indicate on the enclosed registration form if you wish to be considered for one of the workshops. (Space is limited, so places will be allocated to the first applicants).
The draft programme is enclosed. It would be appropriate if you would now discuss the arrangements for clinical care in your hospital with your Educational Supervisor (Consultant) and other colleagues who will be affected by your absence. A registration form is also enclosed and we recommend early registration.
It is essential that you discuss the arrangements for clinical cover for your hospital and then send the registration form to BCOS Ltd before 21stFebruary, 2009.
