The Medical Education Fellowships are designed for doctors who have completed their General Practice Specialty Training within the last 5 years and have an interest in medical education.

This will involve being attached to the regional NES Postgraduate GP unit with opportunities to become involved with teaching, educational developments, quality assurance initiatives and evaluation/research. Individuals will be encouraged to start a postgraduate qualification relevant to medical education.
