Welcome to the BOTA handbook.

This guide is written by members of the BOTA committee past and present, and hopefully will be of use to established trainees as well as new HSTs in Trauma and Orthopaedics.



This section of our new website is designed to provide you with a guide to:

  • Careers and career pathways in Orthopaedics and Trauma in the UK
  • The training requirements of this pathway
  • What to do as a newly appointed SpR or ST3 in Trauma and Orthopaedics
  • The BOTA organisation and philosopy
  • Our role in supporting Orthopaedic trainees
  • How you can get more involved with BOTA
  • The future of Orthopaedic Training and Practice
  • Help with using this site, and finding your way around our pages

If you have any useful feedback as to how this guide could be improved, or would like to write pages (which will of course be duly attributed if you so wish!) then contact us via the contact webmaster button or committee page.
