Join Dr Paula Newton, GP Retention Lead for the Training Hub and a local appraiser and senior appraiser, for an update on the process and requirements of appraisal and revalidation.

This session is appropriate for GPs at any career stage, to remind and refresh themselves on this topic. It will also cover the recent update to the GMC Good Medical Practice which informs the content and focus of appraisal. There will be a presentation, as well as the opportunity to interact and ask questions.

We aim to help you feel confident about the requirements of appraisal and revalidation and bring you up to date with the recent changes to Good Medical Practice and how it influences the content and focus of appraisal.

This event will take place via zoom – you will find the zoom link in your booking confirmation email.
