Core curriculum statement

The core curriculum statement provides a full description of the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviours required of a GP in managing patients and their problems.

You can access the online version of the core curriculum statement: "Being a General Practitioner" here.

Topic guides

These topic guides each explore part of the RCGP curriculum "Being a General Practitioner".

Each topic guide is intended to illustrate important aspects of everyday general practice, rather than provide a comprehensive overview of each clinical topic. It should therefore be considered in conjunction with other topic guides and educational resources. 

They also contain tips and advice for learning, assessment and continuing professional development, including guidance on the knowledge relevant to this area of general practice.
