Upcoming Dates for the Diary

General Internal Medicine

Please check back regularly for training day changes

A list of GIM training days can be found here:  https://heeoe.hee.nhs.uk/medicine/higher-specialty-programmes/general-internal-medicine

Other resources are available to help with your curriculum and portfolio needs.

The Royal College of Physicians hold regular events which may be of interest (https://www.rcplondon.ac.uk/events) and so does the Royal Society of Medicine (https://www.rsm.ac.uk/search-results/?PageTypes=Event). Both of these are very good for GIM teaching!

The British Medical Association has webinars and courses available for members, including on career development: http://https://www.bma.org.uk/learning-and-development.
(Note - HEEOE provides free access to the BMJ Best Practice app, which is very useful on call, to all trainees whether or not they are BMA members.  Details here: https://www.hee.nhs.uk/our-work/library-knowledge-services/hee-bmj-best-practice-comms-resources)

The Cambridge Clinical Research Facility is a great place to do a research course, but tends to only have one per year so book early! https://cambridge.crf.nihr.ac.uk/education-and-training/courses/

Leadership course: the East of England now use The Leadership Ladder, an online course hosted on Bridge, as its leadership course for ARCP requirements.  It is available here: https://heeoe.hee.nhs.uk/medical-training/leadership-hub/hee-eoe-leadership-ladder
If you have a particular interest in leadership, other courses can still be applied for through aspirational study leave.
