This document summarizes a presentation about post-CCT surgical fellowships. It discusses how the apprenticeship model of surgical training is changing, with more trainees pursuing subspecialty fellowship training after completing their CCT. It provides an overview of the Royal College of Surgeons of England's Senior Clinical Fellowship scheme, which establishes standards for fellowship programs. It also shares the presenter's experience completing an RCSE-accredited robotic urology fellowship, highlighting the structured training, improved surgical outcomes, and career benefits it provided.

1. Respondents to census were able to select more than one area of special interest so the total number of responses across all areas of special interest may be higher than the total number of respondents.
2. Specialty recommendations for England, Wales and Northern Ireland. In 2010 The Association of Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland (ASGBI) recommended a consultant workforce ratio of 1:25,000 population and an overall maintenance of consultant surgeon numbers. These recommendations will vary depending on each sub-specialty.

Improving access to seven day services - Taunton 4th March 2015
The first of the regional events for the south took place in Taunton on 4 March. Over 100 delegates from local health and social care organisations came together with patient, public and voluntary sector representatives to hear about the expectations, opportunities and challenges of delivering seven day services and to review and further develop plans for their local communities.
Interactions between the delegates in their local health and social care communities, supported by the NHS Improving Quality team, made this a vibrant event with everyone contributing to the table discussions during the day.
Key themes emerging during the day included:
• The need for system resilience group members to fully understand the skills and “offer” that each of them can bring to the table to improve health and social care seven days a week. This was highlighted in discussions around clinical standard 9, which many groups focussed on as their top priority.
• The need to have an effective system of information sharing between all parts of the health and social care system.
• The huge role that patients and public groups have to play in planning services.
Looking back to move forward - Train the Trainer Study Day for NIVASSarah Phillips
On the eve of a New Year it is wise to look back so we can value and appreciate progress made, but importantly determine ways we want to move forward positively to improve vascular access for our patients. Healthcare remains challenging in many ways including finite resources, but it continues to be dynamic and fast paced with driven clinicians who strive for the best. Here Sarah emphasises that focus remains key and not losing sight of these commonly practiced skills in the complex organisations of healthcare.
VeinTrain co-chaired this fantastic Train the Trainer day for NIVAS - National Infusion Vascular Access Society at the Royal College of Surgeons, London on 12th October 2015.
This presentation shows an overview of key things that work in Vascular Access for Private and Public Sector. The day encouraged lots of lively discussion and engagement on things clinicians find challenging in vascular access training. Vein Train shares some of the decades of experience in this sector including large training projects in the private sector and NHS, including NHS Direct, Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trusts, Guys' and St Thomas's NHS Foundation Trust and King's College University (Medical School).

Apprenticeship Model For Clinical Engineering Workforce DevelopmentBasit Abdul
Hospitals in England are facing a skills gap in the technical workforce for maintaining electromedical
equipment. This study was carried out in the Clinical Engineering (CE) department of
a major public London hospital.
An interview based engagement process was deployed to identify outcomes and benefits that
stakeholders would like to see in an ideal format of a CE apprenticeship programme to
address multiple challenges including the skills gap. Interviews were transcribed and themes
identified, such as Motivation, Training Curriculum and Recruitment. This resulted into a four-layer
CE Apprenticeship Model.
The model was implemented in September 2016 through the launch of a CE apprenticeship
programme that provides equal opportunities to bright and talented 16-19 years old GCSE or
A-level graduates to pursue a career in CE regardless of their ability to pay university fees. We
received 87 applications, shortlisted 11, accepted 4 and currently 4 are enrolled in the
programme. The current apprentices are expected to graduate in 2018 and be able to
maintain low to medium risk medical devices ensuring their safe provision for patients and
clinicians.
Through this case study, we want to share our experiences so far in creating and
implementing the model.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

3. Introduction
• The model of apprenticeship for surgical training is changing
nationally
• The number of general surgery trainees (surgeons in specialty
training) applying to enter subspecialist fellowship training and
then commence independent practice is increasing
• Research in this area has tended to focus on how surgical
trainees are affected by fellowship training programmes
• The extra training provided to surgeons during fellowship
programmes will increase experience and procedural volume,
but whether this translates to improved outcomes remains to be
seen

13. What is a Fellowship Post?
• The College and Specialty Associations define a
fellowship post as a period of additional medical
training, beyond that available in a usual CCT training
programme, which:
o Provides a structured educational experience prior to [Eg. ST5 or above]
or immediately following CCT, designed to deliver the requirements of a
particular sub-specialty which are not readily available within the CCT
training programme
o Has an established curriculum (which includes levels of patient care,
medical knowledge, practice-based learning and improvement,
communication skills, and professionalism) where the subject matter
relates to one of the following
o Acquisition of sub-specialist skills – eg. where specialist surgery has been
centralised in line with commissioning decisions.
14. What is a Fellowship Post?
• The College and Specialty Associations define a fellowship
post as a period of additional medical training, beyond that
available in a usual CCT training programme, which:
o Acquisition of super-specialty technical skills – for example, in new
technologies and treatments which may not be readily available within a
given region or training programme
o Acquisition of multidisciplinary skills in a given clinical area
15. What is a Fellowship Post?
• Does not impinge on the training of pre CCT trainees
• Is allied to workforce opportunities
• Takes place in an institution that assumes ultimate responsibility
for delivery of the programme of training and education; this
includes providing sufficient protected time for both trainer(s)
and trainees (fellows) and necessary financial support for the
programme
16. What is a Fellowship Post?
• Has a single programme director assigned, with authority and
accountability for the fellowship post
• Has identified faculty that will assume educational and
supervisory responsibilities throughout the programme
• Has a written agreement in place specifying responsibilities for
training, teaching, supervision and evaluation of the
programme
• Provides opportunities for audit and research
• Has an external evaluation process
17. What are the benefits of fellowship training
• Fellowship approved will demonstrate that the post meets the
standards as set out by the Royal College of Surgeons and
Specialty Associations,
• Offers a high quality learning experience
• Recognition of these factors will assist in attracting high calibre
fellows
• The scheme will also benefit patients and the public, protect
the interests of trainees and fellows and improve the quality of
teaching, research and professional practice
