Surgical Training


The National Trainee Committee for Cardiothoracic Surgery (NTCCTS) is the training arm of the Society for Cardiothoracic Surgery (SCTS) in Great Britain and Ireland. We represent the views and interests of all doctors pursuing a career in cardiothoracic surgery, ranging from foundation doctors to senior specialty registrars.

Through several partnerships, we execute a common vision encompassing the views of all trainees towards safer, more efficient, and enjoyable training in the specialty.

We hold regular teaching webinars, wet lab sessions in association with ASiT and dedicated breakout sessions at the SCTS annual meeting where there are plenty of opportunities to learn, network, share ideas and your experience.

Our aim is for the UK and Ireland cardiothoracic training programmes to be accessible to all and deliver the best training in the world.
