It will be utilised for small group discussions throughout the course. Please be aware that to enable this process, the RCOG must share your title, name, and email address with Keele University.

Course format
This programme has been developed collaboratively between the RCOG and the Keele Clinical Leadership Academy, located in Postgraduate Medicine at Keele University.
