Changes in vocational training for general practice.

Abigail E. McKnight

Abstract

The introduction of Modernising Medical Careers (MMC) and the regulatory framework being implemented by the new Postgraduate Medical Education and Training Board (PMETB) will bring about major changes for all doctors in training, not least in general practice (GP).1,2 As there has been longstanding criticism of elements of the GP training programme, which has been set in regulation for the past 25 years, GP educationalists on the whole welcome this opportunity to develop a new training programme which is more fit for purpose.
