This programme for potential and existing GP trainers has been developed in association with the Kent, Surrey and Sussex (KSS) GP Deanery. Any doctor wishing to become a GP trainer in KSS should take this programme.

The programme of study is designed to be flexible and related to the work needed to be done to become accredited as a trainer or will enhance the work necessary to be done to be reaccredited as a trainer. The programme has been designed as portfolio-based learning which takes account of the existing work you undertake as a clinician.

The initial award is for a postgraduate certificate but further programmes are being developed which will lead to a diploma and onwards to a Master's degree. Once enrolled you may elect which stages of the pathway you wish to complete. For GP educators who already have a postgraduate certificate or diploma, it will be possible to enter the programme at the appropriate level of study.

Course content
