This is an afternoon event.

Times: 14:00 - 17:30

This session will be face-to-face in the Education Unit at Southampton General Hospital.

GP Education Unit, Level C, South Academic Block, Southampton General Hospital. SO16 6YD.

Drs Nicky O'Shaughnessy & Suzanne Bates are running this AKT course for the October sitting. This is the 2nd session out of 3. The last session runs in September 2022. You would be expected to use your CPD session that week to be able to attend. All three sessions should be attended to gain the most out of the course. You can only attend this course once and so we advise that you select the course relevant to your intended sitting. Remember you are only eligible to sit the AKT once you are an ST2 and we would advise waiting until you have had some experience in a GP placement.

Email invitations have been sent to all ST2/3/OOS & OOP trainees (if appropriate) and it is important that you have booked a place for this course prior to attending.

Most of the sessions in this series will take place in GPEU but, occasionally, other training rooms in the hospital may be used so please check the event details before each meeting.

As with all GPEU training sessions, details are subject to change so please check the events page regularly.
