Rotational training schemes are now well established as appropriate means of organising psychiatric training in the UK. There are already a number of good descriptions of how schemes are organised and managed (Soni et al, 1987; Davies, 1990) and one report of the experiences of trainees in a particular scheme (Fahy & Beats, 1990).
