Little has been published by junior trainees of their experience of part-time training. This paper discusses two different arrangements of flexible training at registrar level based on the personal experience of a married couple where both partners wished to combine psychiatric training with childcare. Job-share by working alternate periods of six months is compared with being in separate flexible training posts as super numerary registrars.
