Educating

Educating physicians and supporting them to fulfil their potential

We strive for excellence in the training and continuing professional development of physicians and physician associates throughout their multifaceted careers. We develop them as careerlong learners and improvers, leaders, educators and researchers. We formulate and present the knowledge of our members for wider public benefit.

We will:

• provide a suite of robust and fit-for-purpose examinations
• develop and support the implementation of curricula, training pathways and credentials which meet standards set by regulators and/or other quality frameworks
• develop innovative education specific to evolving professional roles, providing it across a variety of platforms
• support appropriate expectations of continuing professional development, providing a clear framework and supportive infrastructure
• support clinicians to develop skills in leadership, education, research, improvement methodology and implementation science
• publish and encourage medical best practice through our journals and wider publishing programme, promoting ethical standards of publication.
