Results indicated that all 21 pediatric trainees had received some training in child protection; 12 of the 21 had received training within the past 2 years. Most training was on physical abuse although training was also offered on report writing for case conferences or court, emotional abuse, and neglect. Training for the assessment of sexual abuse, however, was only received by 4 of the 10 male pediatric trainees compared to 11 of the female pediatric trainees. Supervised clinical training and multi-agency training were identified as the most valuable forms of training. Eighteen of the pediatric trainees indicated that they would welcome further training in child protection. The authors recommend that pediatrician trainees have identified time for clinical supervision and management training of child protection cases as well as peer review and case discussion sessions in order to learn from the experiences of others. Participants were 21 pediatric trainees in Wales who completed a mailed self-administered questionnaire asking about their child protection training type, amount, and timing. Future research should focus on determining the level of competency required for every pediatrician so that appropriate and standard training specifications can be developed. Figure, table, references
