Abstract

Training in obstetrics and gynaecology has evolved significantly over the past two decades, offering thrilling opportunities to progress women’s health and, at the same time, presenting various challenges to both trainees and trainers. In this Spotlight, we highlight the changes in training reflected in past issues of The Obstetrician and Gynaecologist (TOG) from 2001 until now, initially with the implementation of the Modernising Medical Careers (MMC) training scheme, moving on to the introduction of new subspecialty training and finally the focus on team learning and non‐technical skills. We now recognise the importance of human factors, self‐reflection, and learning from Serious Incidents Requiring Investigation (SIRI) as an integral part of the development of an obstetrician and gynaecologist. We explore the issues of alternative training opportunities allowing doctors to pursue the Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Registration (CESR) accreditation as an alternative to Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT). In this Spotlight, we also confront the high attrition (Br J Hosp Med 2017;78(6):334–8) and undermining rates reported by trainees, as well as the increasing physician burnout in our speciality.
