A majority of psychiatrists embark on their careers by entering an SHO/registrar rotation where they can expect to receive a broad based training in the principles and practice of their chosen specialty. These posts should provide the trainee with an opportunity to observe and emulate high standards of clinical care as well as fostering academic interests and research skills. The Royal College of Psychiatrists recognises the importance of these years by monitoring the standard of posts and by examining trainees at the end of this period.
