Trainee Forum

Welcome to the PECSIG Trainee Forum!

Mission Statement

This forum is a trainee-led, collaborative space where paediatric and SPIN trainees come together to showcase Quality Improvement and audit projects, and share the challenges and successes of their training journey.

Founded by PECSIG trainee representatives, our goal is to foster growth, support, and learning by engaging with one another and our mentors, exchanging insights, and elevating the paediatric cardiology training experience. Here, you can connect with peers, gain support, and explore career development paths in a supportive, inclusive, and empowering environment.

Join us each month to share your work, learn from fellow trainees, and together make a meaningful impact on our specialty.
