eLearning courses

Created by GPs, for GPs - the College delivers over 150 peer-reviewed courses each year to develop your clinical knowledge and professional confidence.

Our award-winning eLearning is designed to fit around the realities of general practice.

All CPD is free for RCGP members, and covers both clinical and non-clinical topics. Toolkits, pathways, and curated hubs bring together the resources you need, when you need them.

If you’re starting out, you’ll find tailored support through GP SelfTest, InnovAiT (the go-to journal for GP registrars), and our MRCGP preparation courses. For every stage of your career, RCGP eLearning ensures you stay informed and up to date with the latest evidence.
