I may be behind the times and everyone else already knows about the DoH
document on this- 'Postgraduate Medical Education and Training' discussion
document (setting up Medical Education Standards Board etc) or it may be
considered irrelevant to this forum, in which case please accept my profound
apologies and ignore the rest of this post; but has anyone else seen this
document? Some interesting ideas- it seems that the STA and the JCPTGP will
have much of their functions combined in one central board to oversee all
postgrad education. Rather than being guided by the colleges, it will have
50/ 50 medical/ lay representation; but the key difference is that it will
have a duty to reflect NHS interests and priorities (which currently the STA
the STA does not). Does anyone cleverer than me know how this will affect
us?
