A Junior Members Representative (without voting rights) will represent Junior BOTA Members on the BOTA committee, as an invited member. This post will be elected each year at the BOTA AGM from 2011 by a vote of Junior BOTA members, in the same manner as the other posts on the BOTA committee. Junior BOTA Members will have no other voting rights on Committee or within the AGM/EGM.
Please contact the BOTA secretary if you wish an exceptional application to be considered.
Once trainees obtain a National Training Number in Trauma and Orthopaedics, they should inform the BOA Membership Secretary and their membership can be upgraded from Junior to Full BOTA membership.
