Training Day
This is organised by the ACB Education Committee and has proved to be very popular with those studying for examinations. There are two groups of trainees: Group A, aimed at relatively new members of the profession (less than 2-3 years in training); and Group B, which is aimed at those who have taken, or are about to take, FRCPath Part1.
