AbstractI am proud to be a product of an excellent training system that builds trainees and fellows with an ongoing desire to learn. Dogmatic incorporation of external courses into training would be incongruent with medical education best practice principles upon which the new curriculum is founded. I am confident that our junior colleagues can – as we were – be trusted for generations to come to fashion their own learning paths, identifying and addressing their own knowledge gaps, using whatever media engages them best.
