PalMed UK in collaboration with the Royal College of Surgeons of England (RCSEng) offer the opportunity to pursue CPD accredited online modules at 50% discount of the standard cost. These modules can count towards the degree of “Postgraduate Certificate In Surgery” (https://www.rcseng.ac.uk/education-and-exams/courses/postgraduate-certificate-in-surgery/). The offer is aimed at Palestinian doctors particularly for doctors living or working in Gaza, West Bank or Jerusalem.

How it works?

There are 15 eLearning online modules on the RCS England website. Over the next 12 months, we will advertise 2-4 modules every two to four months. You will need to register for an online account on the RCS England’s website to allow you access to the modules when your application has been approved by RCS England. You will choose one or two modules from the list and you will be given 6 months to complete each module. We recommend that you do not register for additional modules offered in the following rounds until you provide a certificate of completion for the modules you already registered for. We recommend trying to complete a module every 2 month.
