title: The Grampian Senior House Officer scheme in medicine -- the early years and now.
abstract: A rotational scheme for Senior House Officers in medicine is described. Although it was introduced more than 30 years ago its effectiveness is such that it has remained the basis of training. Details of the original scheme are given together with the underpinning principles. The modifications leading to the current scheme are noted.
