Overseas Training
To be undertaken preferably during the 3rd
year of training. Application for scholarships, bursaries, paid leaves or other
forms of aid to be done early. The respective sub specialty training committee will
attempt to procure a suitable overseas training center for the trainee.
It should be noted here that this Fellowship is not
tied to any form of Scholarship / Bursary / Paid Leaves or Sabbaticals. But the
reverse applies, one has to be in the Fellowship to qualify for the scholarship.
***From 2007 intake onwards, only candidates who has passed their 1st
assessment will be considered for scholarships / paid leaves for overseas training.
However, every effort will still be made to obtain
scholarships and other forms of financial support for the candidates to enable them
to attend overseas training. Unfortunately, such scholarships are very limited;
hence not all candidates will be successful in obtaining a scholarship for overseas
training. Joining this Fellowship is not a guarantee to overseas
training. ***Candidates who are willing to be posted to unpopular
places on completion of training or willing to take up not
so popular disciplines may be given scholarships in preference to others.
