Site FAQ & Help
What is this site about?
Foundationyears.org is an unofficial guide to the Foundation Programme. It has been developed to provide current and future trainees
with unbiased information about careers in Medicine. With the introduction of Modernising Medical Careers, there has been a radical
overhaul in the training of junior doctors. The changes implemented by MMC have affected a great number of trainees, with rather mixed results.
Like it or not, at least some of the changes introduced are here to stay. It
is therefore upto trainees to ensure that they fully understand the system and are able to maximise their chances of getting the jobs that they
want.

This site neither intends to support nor condemn the Foundation Programme - it is designed to be a neutral information resource, with any
opinions expressed being the views of either the developers of the Programme, or the students and trainees that will be the end-users. This site
relies upon its
users to develop; we need your contributions to ensure that the views, particularly of Foundation Year Trainees are accurately reflected. We
therefore very much welcome user contributions. To submit any material to us, please use the 'contact us' link. Thank you.
