Foundation Programme Curriculum
This Curriculum reflects a developmental approach to postgraduate medical education. Under the Curriculum, foundation doctors have to demonstrate that they are competent in a number of areas including communication and consultation skills, patient safety and team work as well as the more traditional elements of medical training.
The framework for this structured two-year training programme gives foundation doctors exposure to a range of career placements across a broad spectrum of specialties, including accident & emergency, obstetrics & gynaecology and anaesthetics.
Foundation doctors will be assessed against the outcomes in the Curriculum and should keep all of their assessments (not just the good ones) in theirFoundation Programme e-Portfolio.
