Candidates for postgraduate surgical exams now have to learn much of their anatomy de novo rather than simply revise what they learned as medical students. A number of short courses have developed that help candidates prepare for the Intercollegiate Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons (MRCS). Unfortunately these courses tend to be centralised and trainees incur high travel and accommodation costs when attending them. Trainees are also absent from their hospitals for long periods, which can disrupt clinical services.

The introduction of the European Working Time Directive (EWTD) has created specific and predictable pressures on surgical training and education. In many hospitals the emphasis has been on ensuring a safe service, particularly out of hours. This has been to the detriment of training opportunities. The changes inherent in Modernising Medical Careers with the introduction of progressive training will further limit the amount of time for postgraduate surgical training to a total of six or seven years.
