Requirements for the recognition of trainers in Scotland.

Trainers requiring to be recognised include: all undergraduate teachers performing one of the ‘named’ roles all secondary-care trainers performing one of the ‘named’ roles GP trainers who supervise foundation trainees only and who are not already approved Non-medically qualified trainers performing one of the ‘named’ roles (e.g. healthcare science, public health).
