Training in progressThe London School of Surgery Training Programme is designed to provide laboratory training specifically matched to the trainee's stage in clinical practice. As trainees progress from ST4 to ST5, or move sub-specialty, the programme has the flexibility to switch trainees into more appropriate training. The training sessions are distributed at approximately monthly intervals.

For London ST3s and ST4s, the training sessions cover a wide-range of procedures at which junior general surgical trainees might be expected to achieve competency (see General/Junior Procedures).

For ST5s and ST6s, training is focused on the sub-specialty of the trainee's clinical post - specifically Breast, Colorectal, Upper GI and HPB, Transplant and Vascular (see below).

All training sessions are taught by experienced consultants. Their contribution is greatly valued by the trainees.
