AbstractMany medical (and other) trainees will have heard mention during their training years of the specialty training committee (STC) relevant to their chosen medical specialty and might even be aware of some of the trainer members who sit on this committee. However, there is a perception that, equally, many trainees have no clear understanding of the roles and functions of STCs in relation to their training and, furthermore, the relation of their STC to its local deanery. This might also extend to consultant educational trainers who are less involved in the broader provision of postgraduate medical training (although, ideally this should not be the case). Here, I provide a brief guide to the role of STCs in training and their relation to their local deanery.
