Abstract 

Trainees in obstetrics and gynaecology have officially organised meetings for European trainees since 1992. In order to understand each other better and appreciate differences in training, an annual exchange program and a meeting were developed to discuss topics related to training and harmonisation. The proceedings from the 17th meeting in Austria and the 18th meeting in Portugal serve as an illustration of the current status in Europe regarding ‘assessment’ and ‘working conditions’ during specialist training for obstetrics and gynaecology. ENTOG aims to represent all European trainee organisations in obstetrics and gynaecology and speak out on their behalf.
