Good Medical Practice Framework

Must be used by individual doctors to:

Reflect on practice/approach to medicine

Reflect on Supporting Information and what it demonstrates

Identify areas for improvement/further development

Demonstrate they are ‘up to date and fit to practise’

CPD Matrix (Clinical)

Three levels:

Level One
 Restricted area of essential knowledge

Level Two (Knowledge and skills)
 Directly related to on-call activity

Level Three (Knowledge and skills)
 Directly related to special interest clinical activity
www.rcoa.ac.uk/docs/CPD_2010.pdf
(New) CPD Matrix: level one (L1)
Level 1 covers the core knowledge areas expected of all those
who have trained as anaesthetists. The CPD evidence for this
level will be largely ‘internal’ and may be obtained from
reviews/reflection of personal clinical practice utilising records of
clinical activity, e-learning material, reading and local hospital
departmental meetings.

(New) CPD Matrix: level two (L2)
Level 2 CPD topics should reflect the whole of the individual’s
clinical practice including on-call responsibilities in non-specialist
centres. The CPD evidence for this level may be provided, in part,
by updates from local experts but it will also include the need for
more ‘external’ CPD activity through attendance at courses and
meetings.
