Return to teaching for senior doctors

This interactive, 1-day workshop is designed to support senior doctors who wish to return to teaching and update their skills, underpinned by an evidence-based approach that aligns with the current needs and structures of medical education in the UK.

This course will enable senior doctors to:

• Understand and apply different teaching methods and effective learning strategies
• Critically evaluate learning theory and research evidence to inform educational practice
• Develop a toolkit of practical teaching methods
• Enhance their practical teaching skills and support student-centred learning
• Have opportunities to network with other senior doctors and medical educators.

Our workshops are delivered by a team of experienced medical educationalists or jointly delivered by medical educationalists and senior doctors. This expert facilitation is key to the value and success of our workshops.

Our experienced medical educationalists bring theoretical understanding and practical teaching experience from a variety of academic backgrounds. The doctors bring experience and knowledge of medical education practice and are all senior doctors (from a range of specialties) working in hospitals throughout the UK, who have teaching and supervisory roles as part of their clinical commitments.

This course is open to senior doctors wanting to update their teaching skills and considering an increased focus on medical education.
