A National Guide to Training
Please see the Occasional Papers Section of the Royal College Website by clicking here.
This document provides guidence on the standards for psychiatric training that the Royal College of Psychiatrists recommends, and so the guide may be used to support the Quality Assurance of psychiatric training. It is not intended to cover every detail and aspect of training but it sets out standards as they apply across all psychiatric training. This guide has been written to provide an overview of postgraduate training in psychiatry.
The guide is intended to outline the process of training for a doctor in training in psychiatry and so assist them in meeting the requirements of the Curriculum. This replaces OP65.
