Update from committee meeting, March 2011 (Paul Flanagan)
SpR Education meeting
There is funding for a meeting in 2012. This will be held in Autumn and needs to avoid a clash with the Oxford IBD course and UEGW. The content has already been largely outlined by the trainees committee (see below). The full programme, date and location will be finalised in the next 3 months.
Roles and Strategies for sections
The BSG would like to see more direction from some of the sections. The Trainees Section has been reviewing its constitution and structure for the last 6 months and has already largely implemented the suggested changes.
Specific roles for the section chairs were suggested, namely:
Speciality
- Chair meeting of section
- Lead for the society on their speciality area
- Respond to NICE on subjects relevant to the Section specialty.
- Relate to super specialist organisations relevant to the section
CSSC
- Attend the Clinical Services and Standards Committee, or send a deputy
- Work with CSSC to develop appropriate clinical standards.
- Nominate a representative to the CSSC
- Suggest guidelines
Audit
- Attend/nominate someone for audit meetings
- Suggest audits
Annual Meeting
- Organise (or contribute towards) their section symposium. Nominate abstract reviewers, free paper and poster round chairs for their section.
- Write an annual report to the ABM
- Attend the BSG Education and Programme Committee, or send a deputy. Section committee must be represented every time.
Council
- Report key issues to Council
Badging rules
Rules were discussed for BSG badging of courses. Final details will be circulated in due course but it is likely that courses will need external CPD approval in order to be eligible.
