F1 - Careers Workshop

"Your Career, Your Life, Your Direction." 
A full day workshop for F1 trainees across the Midlands

A whole day out of F1 during February or March to take a constructive look at career planning and decision making with plenty of resources and signposting so that you can make more of the opportunities available to you. Have a quick read of what previous trainees have said about the workshop...

• "The workshop provides an opportunity to consider your options in a relaxed and pressure-free environment and gain a head start in planning your specialist training."
• "For a foundation doctor this is an amazing experience, there is so much to take home especially at this crucial stage of our careers."
• "Informal and light-hearted involving thinking outside the box and uses different learning styles to achieve this."
• "Helped to consider wider issues of working in different specialties."
• "Useful to work out which particular skills I enjoy using in my work and to think about which areas of medicine might be most interesting and satisfying to work in."
