This section includes documents concerning the training of Clinical Biochemists in Metabolic and Paediatric Biochemistry. They may also prove useful to BioMedical Scientists (but first see the BMS Training Group Page on this site) and clinicians nurses, dieticians and other disciplines working in Inherited Metabolic Disease.

The documents are grouped according to the level of training.

Introductory Training in Metabolic Laboratory Medicine

 This covers the recommendations (including a curriculum) for training in Metabolic and Paediatric Biochemistry for students in the first three or four years of training as Clinical Biochemists (formerly known as "Grade A Trainees").

Advanced Training in Metabolic Laboratory Medicine

This covers the recommendations (including a curriculum) for the training of Higher Specialist Trainees in Metabolic and Paediatric Biochemistry. They may also prove useful to Clinical Biochemists working in substantive or temporary "Grade B" posts in inherited metabolic disease laboratories that require further training or wish to broaden their knowledge base.

General

This includes general information covering all areas of training in Inherited Metabolic Disease.
