GP PLACEMENTS
You will have experience in GP
placements for either 4 or 8 months in
your first and second years in the GP
Training Programme (ST1 and ST2). Your
main placement in GP will be in your
third year (ST3) which will be for the
whole year. This year will allow you to
consolidate your learning and really get
to grips with the skills and knowledge
required for managing patients as a
GP. In addition to the workplace based
assessments you will be undertaking
the external assessments of the MRCGP,
the AKT (this is normally taken in this
year, but can be taken earlier) and the
CSA. You will have a close contact with
your GP Trainer who will act as both
your Educational and Clinical Supervisor
(though in most Training Practices, there is
wide variety of support from all members
of the Primary Healthcare Team). Whilst in
the GP placement, you will be employed
by the Practice. It is also important to be
aware that all practising GPs are required
to be on the Medical Performers List of
the Primary Care Trust (PCT) in which they
work and you will also need to be on
this. In order to do this you will need to
undergo an enhanced Criminal Records
Bureau (CRB) check. The GP Training
Recruitment Manager will inform you of
this and you need to ensure that your
Medical Indemnity is appropriate before
you start. The Practice Manager in your
Training Practice will be an invaluable
source of support for you, even before
you start, and will be able to answer and
resolve many of your queries relating to
your employment in the Practice.

AKT Applied Knowledge Test - part of the MRCGP.
