Lord Patel's Report on Education and Training

In Lord Patel's report Recommendations and Options for the Future Regulation of Education and Training (pdf) he recommended that the GMC should update its 2004 CPD guidance and re-examine how its regulatory role in CPD should be exercised.

In the light of Lord Patel's recommendation we have begun a review of our role in CPD.
