Foundation training for doctors
This world-class e-learning resource helps newly qualified doctors to develop the skills, understanding and attitudes to become proficient and caring medical practitioners.
Enhancing professional and clinical skills
The programme covers the core clinical and professional skills and behaviours needed by doctors, from trust through to communication, leadership, ethics, safety and quality improvement.

Using scenario-based exercises, you can test your clinical skills in diagnosing and managing a patient case by reviewing clinical data and a medical history in a virtual consulting room.
