CPD
If you attend this webinar you can use it as CPD for your appraisal. To do so you’ll need to provide:
- evidence (certificate of attendance), and
- reflection, specifically a couple of paragraphs on what you learnt, what effect it will have on your current practice and how it relates to Good Medical Practice.
Upload these into your portfolio and self-allocate your CPD points at 0.25 credits per 15 mins.
Queries: If you have any questions please email events@fpm.org.uk.
Joining instructions will be emailed to registered attendees periodically, and a reminder will be sent on the morning of the Journal Club (21 June 2022). Please check your junk folder!
