Modular posts

We have had a few queries recently about whether doctors can undertake modular posts. Being able to do a modular post is a 'privilege' and not a 'right'. They can be undertaken in the second post of ST3 IF:

• You have successfully passed AKT
• Taken CSA
• Your trainer, educational supervisor and TPD have no concerns about your progress

No concerns about your progress means precisely that; you are up to date with your ePortfolio and not been to panel or have had comments made about your progress. You will not have had got your CSA result before you start your modular post but we would expect you to pass. If you fail it then you need to leave the modular post and start doing full time general practice again.

Its easy - modular posts are for high flyer's who are at the top of the game!
