Welcome to CMT

This website contains everything you need to know to apply for CMT (CT1) posts in England and Wales in 2010 by way of the online application system, including information for applicants, deaneries and consultants, as well as details of the different stages of the recruitment process, with key dates and clear instructions.

The CMT process - run by the RCP London on behalf of the JRCPTB - currently covers all deaneries and units of application within England & Wales. In future years, we are hopeful that we can extend this process further across the UK's devolved nations and to implement further co-ordination for all trainees.

Please note that CMT Round 1 recruitment has now closed to candidates who have not already applied. Candidates wishing to access their application portal should click on the 'Login' link on the right-hand side of this page. All eligible candidates have been offered an interview. Post offers are now being made, and we expect offers to continue being made until the end of April.

CMT recruitment Round 2 opens on March 30th. More information on this can be found elsewhere on this website, and also in our new 2010 CMT Applicants’ Guide: Round 2, available for download at the foot of this page. This guide is a fully-comprehensive document, containing in-depth information on all aspects of the 2010 CMT recruitment process: from initial preparation for applying, through the application and interview stages, up to the offers process and beyond.

Along with the guide, the CMT helpdesk – reached via cmtrecruitment@rcplondon.ac.uk – will continue to give advice and information where possible. Our FAQs pages will be updated regularly to give the best possible advice on all aspects of the process, so please visit this before emailing the helpdesk.

Lastly - please be aware that the process of recruitment to 2010 CMT posts will not include a knowledge test.

Best wishes for 2010,

Yours sincerely,
