Staff grades and associate specialists: their continuing professional development and aspirations.
A survey of staff grades and associate specialists in the Oxford deanery showed that there were slightly more females (53%). There were 44% who had on-call commitments, a third of these were first on call. Thirty-eight per cent of the staff grades and 55% of the associate specialists had membership or fellowship of their relevant Royal College. The majority undertake continuing professional development and a majority would like promotion but only a small minority is prepared to relocate to further their training.
