Training Reports
Both SAM and the GMC collate their own annual training survey results.
SAM
Every year, all resident doctors are asked to complete the National GMC survey. Whilst it does include some specialty or group specific questions the majority of data collected represents all respondents and it is difficult to gauge a true representation of training within Acute Medicine. The Society for Acute Medicine gives Acute Medical Higher Speciality Trainees the opportunity to complete their own specific survey. This in turn generates a report specific to Acute Medical training and can be used to guide Training Programme Directors and trainees on how best to improve their training, both locally and nationally.
For any local reports, please contact your local trainee representative and TPD.
2025 Results are included below
GMC
The GMC National Training Survey is sent out to trainees in all specialties in April/May each year. Whilst it does include some specialty or group specific questions the majority of data collected represents all respondents.
The 2021 report makes interesting reading given the effect of the pandemic on trainees experience but it doesn’t include any specific questions relating to acute medicine trainees.
Previous SAM training survey results will be included below.
