Abstract
Many trainees in psychiatry have only a vague idea about what the Collegiate Trainees' Committee (CTC) is or what it does. The Royal College of Psychiatrists is unique among the medical Royal Colleges in having a CTC. It was established in 1979, although its roots go back to the previously established Association of Psychiatrists in Training, which was independent of the College.

Summary
Committee (CTC) is or what it does. The Royal College of Psychiatrists is unique among the medical Royal Colleges in having a CTC. The new CTC meets for a residential weekend meeting This allows new members to meet, socialise and be introduced to the way in which the committee works. Members elected to represent the CTC on other committees are expected to attend the meetings of those committees, and the frequency of those meetings varies from three or four per year to monthly, depending on the committee. In this way, trainees, via the CTC, can influence decisions made in College which have a direct impact on our training.
