An often less visible part of the RCP's work involves supporting assessment and training for trainees, alongside curriculum work, appraisal and revalidation expertise, and advanced clinical education for experienced healthcare professionals.
We also support our work influencing policy in the following areas, where education is part of our overarching strategy:
- Health inequalities
- Sustainability – a clinical education fellow starting in September 2024 will support this area of work.
- Research – we have free e-learning modules for members on how to get involved in research
