The Association of Surgeons in Training (ASiT) is a Registered Charity (No. 274841), which was established in 1976 as a forum for senior registrars to meet socially and discuss training matters.
ASiT now represents the second largest surgical specialty association in the UK, with over 2200 members, and is the fastest growing surgical specialty organisation.
ASiT’s members come from all nine surgicall specialties. ASiT is the only body in the UK to represent trainees at both Core and Higher Surgical Training levels with orthopaedic registrars also represented by BOTA.
ASiT functions through the input of its specialty representatives and regional representatives serving the needs of trainees beyond its formal membership.
ASiT membership costs just £40 when paid by direct debit or £50 otherwise. This fee has remained as low as possible whilst ASiT aims to maximise the return to its trainee members.
ASiT represents the views of its membership through representation on the councils of the Surgical Royal Colleges, ISCP, JCST, and numerous other working parties and committees.
ASiT is independent to the Surgical Royal Colleges, and is run by trainees, for trainees.
