Training Programmes in Anaesthesia

Anaesthesia training has been organised in Schools of Anaesthesia (SoA) since 1996. Set out below you will find a list of 'Schools' in the UK. There are 29 Schools each delivering a full programme of training in Anaesthesia to CCT level.

Please note that for the definition of all Units of Application (UoA) you must refer to the MMC website. Schools and Deaneries may not be co-terminus with UoAs throughout the UK. The London Deanery is a single Deanery but for simplicity we have described the SoA as North or South London. Applicants must check with MMC (www.mmc.nhs.uk) how London is divided into Units of Application.
