The Self-Development Day is not a day off. We would expect the successful candidate to be self-motivated and demonstrate engagement with their onwards career development and learning. Previous candidates have used this time to study for a Masters in Medical Education, pursue interests in Clinical Governance or Quality Improvement or attend routine clinics in a sub-speciality area of their choice. The Self-Development Day can be on the same day every week, but occasionally we ask the candidate to be flexible in order to facilitate leave elsewhere in the COTE department. At times of high clinical pressures the self-development day may be cancelled, we aim to keep this to the very minimal and only as a last resort.
