Green M et al. – These results suggest that PGY3 programs are likely to form an increasingly important part of the FM training system in the future. Demand is high and rising, and it seems likely that the number and types of positions offered will continue to grow. Flexible programs that are able to respond to the changing educational needs of core program graduates and to changes in demand for particular services are considered particularly desirable. It will be important to ensure that the numbers and content of these programs meet health system needs in addition to the educational needs and interests of trainees. Training programs and national and provincial colleges of FM will also need to ensure that these physicians are provided with opportunities to maintain their ties with the rest of the FM community.
