Call For Expressions of Interest: Trainee Speakers For Educational Forums

3rd February 2023

Dear all,

The BCIS educational forum has now been running for over 18 months and has been a great success, with high numbers attending live in-person and watching on-demand after. The sessions address the Joint Royal College of Physicians Training Board (JRCPTB) higher specialist interventional cardiology curriculum.

We are now looking for expressions of interest (by means of reply email BCIS@millbrookconferences.co.uk) for more trainee speakers (June 2023 onwards) to continue delivering high-quality sessions for all BCIS members to enjoy. The sessions last for one hour in total and start at 19:00 on the second Tuesday of the month.

Kind regards,

Sam McGrath, BCIS Trainee Representative

Call For Expressions of Interest: BCIS Trainees Course

11th January 2023

Dear BCIS member,

Are you and your team enthusiastic about trainee education? Could you deliver one day of interactive informative education? Are you interested in the educational development of the trainee members of our Society? If so, we would like to invite you to submit an expression of interest to host the Trainees Summer Meeting in 2023.

Each year, the BCIS TEG (Teaching and Education Group) Working Group run a popular face to face training day for interventional fellows. Last year, Bournemouth very ably hosted this for us, thank you Peter and your team.

The programme for 2023 has not yet been developed, but previously worked best with a mixture of in-house and external faculty and has been hosted in a nearby hotel (although a hospital venue is an option) which is looked after by Millbrook Medical Conferences.

It is intended that the successful centre will join a ZOOM meeting with the TEG Working Group to agree a date, the content of the programme and their role in it.

 

Application

Application is by self-nomination along with a supporting statement from the centre. This should be no more than 500 words, and include the details of what you and your unit can bring to the TEG Working Group and its summer meeting. Centres will be judged by prior experience and effectiveness of delivery, range of subjects covered, and ease of delegates to get to venue.

Applicants are welcome to upload a suggested draft agenda, but this is optional.

If you are enthusiastic to take this on, please complete the form at the bottom of the page by Friday, 3 February 2023 at 5 PM, including a statement in support of your application.

If you have any questions relating to this role, please feel free to contact me for further information (brian.clapp@gstt.nhs.uk).

With kind regards,

Brian Clapp
