What is the minimum number of sessions that I have to complete for revalidation?
There is no specific number of sessions required. It is dependent on your job plan as agreed with your respective employer. A doctor seeing the full case mix of an emergency department would be expected to cover all specialty standards required and the breadth of the EM curriculum. Time spent in direct clinical contact (shop floor) should have been discussed with your appraiser to ensure that sufficient time has been allowed in your job plan to attain the minimum standards required. For revalidation purposes Medical Colleges have stipulated that members must complete a minimum 50 credits Continuous Professional Development (CPD) and 250 credits for every 5 year revalidation period. However, for non-members no specific amount is prescribed. Individuals will need to provide adequate supporting evidence to show that the all the work undertaken adheres to the required generic and specialty standards. The required credits for the relevant standards can be achieved in a number of ways accord
