Registrars in psychiatry do not routinely have the opportunity to learn about systems theory and its application to psychiatric practice. The authors describe their experience of organising and teaching a course on the application of systems thinking to psychiatry and family therapy. The trainees and their tutor welcomed the broad and interactive approach to teaching which was thought to be very relevant to training in all psychiatric sub-specialities.
