As part of an ongoing educational audit of the process, content, and outcome of higher training in the Mersey Region, the Senior Registrar Tutor (MA-S) and the Psychotherapy Speciality Tutor (MG) organised a whole-day workshop for the senior registrars, involving them in internal audit as well as providing an experience of strategic thinking on the impact of NHS changes on higher training. We modified a package used in industry for strategic planning called the Quick Environmental Scanning Technique (QUEST) (Nanus, 1984). The QUEST process involves two whole-day meetings usually separated by a month which we condensed and adapted to one day, alternating large group discussion with small group work.
