Since 2018, Oxford has run a number of themed Fellowships, available to both trainees (as Out-of-Training Experience) and non-trainees alike. These fellowships have sought to combine Emergency Department experience across the full range of settings and services maintained by Oxford University Hospitals with a range of different specialist themes, delivered in a flexibly-arranged package to allow Fellows to explore areas of interest and enhance their CVs in a manner that befits their level of seniority. Current and previous Fellowships are listed below - the Oxford Emergency Departments take a dynamic approach to career development, and new Fellowships are constantly being established - please enquire as per the contact details in each section:

There is a large and increasing proportion of non-training middle grades in the Emergency Department workforce, who form a key and longstanding component of the senior tier. Progression to Consultant status via the Article 14 (CESR - Certificate of Entry to the Spcialist Register) route is an increasingly common phenomenon in Emergency Medicine, and the Oxford University Hospital Emergency Departments have considerable expertise and a successful track record in this regard, with several Consultants appointed successfully having obtained a CESR. The CESR Fellowship aims to create and maintain a streamlined fellowship programme to support ED middle grades in their development towards obtaining a CESR.
