The South West Trainees Committee (SWOT)


SWOT is here for you during your training. SWOT covers trainees in both the Severn and Peninsula Deaneries. We aim to keep you up to date with the latest training issues, organise local training days and act on your behalf locally and nationally to improve our specialty training. Each hospital within the region has a SWOT representative who attends SWOT committee meetings and will report back to trainees within that hospital.

 

Alongside the hospital representatives there is also a flexible trainee representative, an overseas representative a website representative and a ‘SWOT day’ organiser. The committee also includes the Chair (who attends regional specialty training committee meetings and the RCOG trainees committee meetings), Treasurer and Secretary. Trainees are voted into these posts during the AGM.

 

SWOT committee meetings are held three times a year. All trainees are invited to attend the SWOT AGM traditionally held each November alternating between Bristol and Plymouth.

 

SWOT trainees have worked hard to organise monthly regional training days, which have more recently been designed to cover both courses in the new Logbook and interesting topics within the specialty.

 

If you have any queries regarding any training issues please either approach your own hospital representative or contact me directly. Contact details are found in the ‘Who’s who’ section.
