Knowing me, knowing you: evaluation of the impact of trainer involvement at an enhanced induction programme for International Medical Graduates (IMGs).

Addressing differential attainment between International Medical Graduates (IMGs) and their peers who hold UK Primary Medical Qualifications remains one of the most significant challenges facing postgraduate General Practice (GP) training. Enhanced Induction programme, such as the Scottish Trainee Enhanced Programme (STEP), is one tool designed to try and facilitate transition into training and reduce this inequity. The STEP course is attended by both the trainee and their educational supervisor, and aims to lay the foundations of a successful and supportive supervisory relationship. Previous work has evaluated this programme from the perspective of the trainee. Through the use semi-structured interviews, we evaluated the impact and the benefits of the programme from the perspective of the educational supervisors, building on the literature on interventions to support inequity in medical education.
