Information For New Doctors To Southampton
Welcome to the Medical Performers List.
 
There is a diversity of opportunity for continuing professional development available across Hampshire. GP appraisal has been used to help inform what specific provision needs to be offered.
 
Practice based education
Some, but not all practices have a regular education programme. Funding through the Practice Education Accreditation Scheme (PEAS) may be available. There is also some funding to support practice away days. Further information – This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Wessex GP Education Trust (WGPET)
Canada House, 1 Carrick Way, New Milton BH25 6UD
 
This is an educational trust. GPs pay an annual subscription (currently £170, less for those on lowish income), this enables them to attend meetings funded through the scheme without further payment. Many of the courses organised by local tutors are funded through WGPET. There is usually a charge for non-members attending WGPET funded events.
