The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) offers educational resources and career development opportunities through many opportunities for trainees. However, trainees frequently lack access to or awareness of these opportunities and requirements. The purpose of this article is to promote access to RSNA trainee opportunities by illustrating their qualifications, advantages, and characteristics. Access to opportunities starts with RSNA membership, which grants access to several educational, research, and career development offerings. One focal point of RSNA opportunities is the RSNA Annual Meeting in Chicago, Ill, which provides several trainee-specific events. RSNA educational opportunities include access to board preparation content and information about emerging radiologic technologies. Research opportunities include mentor pairing, project development workshops, venues for presentation and publication, and the William W. Olmsted Editorial Fellowship for Trainees. Career development opportunities include positions for society involvement, leadership, and job searching. Collectively, the information presented in this article can guide the approach to early radiology career development for interested medical students, residents, fellows, and faculty advisers.
