Beyond FY2: Alternative Career Pathways and Progression Webinar

Overview

Providing Career and Wellbeing support to doctors in training, foundation year doctors and medical students, are a priority to the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. We acknowledge that taking a break after 2 years of FY training, also known as FY3 year, is gaining popularity. As a result, we have organised this webinar, aiming to discuss different career options whilst doctors in training take a break after completing foundation training, before pursing specialty trainings. Our range of speakers from across the medical profession will discuss different pathways that are available to you after your FY2 year, and will be available to answer any questions you may have. This event will be hosted digitally, on the 25th of April, from 6-8:30pm GMT and is free to attend for all.
