This scheme, now in its third year of operation, is designed to bring to Great Britain every year thirty-eight Canadian graduates in engineering for post-graduate studies. The Fellowships have a duration of two years and are tenable in industry, in universities, or partly in each of these. The author has been connected with the scheme from its inception; he assists in the selection of the graduates in Canada and arranges for their location and training in the United Kingdom. The paper describes in some detail the origin, purpose, and operation of the scheme and raises many issues of interest and importance. The author also gives summaries of the reactions of Athlone Fellows who are now receiving postgraduate training in Great Britain. The purpose of the paper is twofold: to give information concerning a new and important system of Fellowships, and to evoke constructive criticism from professional engineers of its objects and operation.

A questionnaire on postgraduate teaching and training facilities was prepared and circulated by the Education Committee late in 1965, and, after approval by Council, the report on this survey has been published (R.M.P.A., 1968). To find out what changes in teaching and training facilities had taken place in up to 21/2 years, a second questionnaire was circulated to all psychiatric hospitals in the United Kingdom approved by the Conjoint Board as providing training for the D.P.M. The second questionnaire was shorter and simpler than the first, some questions of doubtful value being eliminated and others re-phrased to make them less ambiguous.

The Young Club of the French Society for Radiation Protection (SFRP), supported by the Rising Generations Group of the United Kingdom Society for Radiation Protection (SRP), teamed up to develop a survey targeted at the young professionals in radiation protection. Data about the background and training, current job and position was collected and provides an overview of the demographic of this group of professionals. The survey was also designed as a place where young people can express their views and opinions about initiatives set up by the employer and the national radiation protection society, and area they would like these organisations to develop further. Several key themes emerged from the answers of the respondents: notably, a high wish for more training in radiation protection – under different arrangements, ways to foster and secure future young professionals and a desire and mechanism for encouraging collaboration and networking between young professionals. Besides the statistical data, the messages from the survey will help to assess the effectiveness of initiatives in place, identify new ones and encourage future initiatives to foster and secure the young professionals in radiation protection.

And Training

This century has been characterised by a substantial increase in the number of elderly residents in the community in the technologically advanced countries. One obvious consequence of this has been a pressure on existing mental and socio physical facilities that cater for the elderly. The medico-social factors responsible for this rise in the proportion of the elderly in advanced countries are subtly creeping into many developing countries like Nigeria (Lambo, 1966). It is with this perspective in view, coupled with the dearth of literature on psychogeriatrics in developing countries, that I decided to review the socio-demographic and clinical aspects of elderly (60 years and above) admissions to the Nigerian National Neuropsychiatric Hospital and WHO Collaborating Centre for Research and Training in Mental Health over a five year period (1 January 1982 to 31 December 1986). An attempt will also be made to draw comparisons with my experience of psychogeriatrics in the United Kingdom (I trained in psychiatry at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital in the early 1980s).
