Trainee Representative

 

Tracey Christmas was elected in May 2009 as the Trainee Representative on the OAA Committee.     Contact her with any queries or suggestions.

Role of the Trainee Representative

To offer a trainee's perspective on the many issues covered at the Committee meetings and to bring to the attention of the Committee any issues that trainees would like to see addressed.   These meetings currently occur three times a year.
The trainee rep is also invited to attend relevant subcommittee meetings.
It is a two year tenure (though reduced to one year if you become a consultant whilst in post) and you should have an active interest in obstetric anaesthesia.

How to become the next trainee rep
Firstly, you must be a member of the OAA, then you must find a proposer and a seconder who are also members of the OAA.
Then you need to produce an election statement and photo. Voting occurs on-line and the result will be announced at the AGM.
