MRCPsych Core Psychiatry Course

The MRCPsych Core Psychiatry Course is a process and research-based course with learning objectives and modules for each specialty, which is mapped against the Royal College core psychiatry curriculum and supported by the syllabus. It covers all sub-specialties within Psychiatry.

Doctors in postgraduate medical training work together in small geographically-based learning sets, which are established for doctors at the start of the year to facilitate learning. Doctors use their clinical practice to inform their learning, hence linking work with knowledge. They will create their own portfolio with reflections on their learning and other resources and information.

There will be an ongoing evaluation of this course.
