An outline of the planned work of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists' Board of Education.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this paper is to inform College Fellows, trainees and other stakeholders about the structure, principles and functioning of the new Board of Education. CONCLUSION: The educational activities of the College are likely to evolve and to be developed over the next 5 years by a process taking account of the views of key stakeholders. In the short term, there will be no changes to training or examination processes which would disadvantage trainees.
