Abstract
ENTOG is the European Network of Trainees in Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
This organization aims to represent all European trainee organisations
in obstetrics and gynaecology and speaks out on their behalf. Trainees
in obstetrics and gynaecology have officially organised meetings for European
trainees since 1992, but it was only in 1997 in Athens, that the first
ENTOG Council took place. In order to understand each other better and
appreciate differences in training, an annual four-day exchange program
and a meeting were created to discuss topics related to training and harmonisation,
which is the core activity of ENTOG. With the continuous support from the
European Board & College of
Obstetrics and Gynaecology (EBCOG), the network had an exponential growth
in the past few years, as shown by the increasing number of countries and
trainees represented by ENTOG, as well as by all the training-related published
material and newly developed projects for trainees, including those of
an intercontinental nature.
