GP Update course summary

Stay confident in your clinical practice – in just one day.

Practical, structured learning designed to help busy GPs and clinicians quickly understand what’s changed and what to do differently in practice.

 

We break down new evidence, recent guideline changes and key topics into clear, usable insights so you can make confident decisions in your next clinic.

 

Engaging, varied learning helps information stick, giving you a reliable way to refresh knowledge, reduce uncertainty and keep pace with clinical change. More than CPD, it offers a chance to feel professionally rejuvenated, restoring confidence and enthusiasm for day-to-day clinical practice.

A small splash of the topics we cover

  • Type 2 diabetes: concepts, management for specific groups and more – we have the new NICE guidance covered
  • Obesity wraparound lifestyle support: covering the key factors that sit alongside pharmacological management
  • Chronic heart failure: we cover the new NICE guidance, highlighting practice-changing updates to management
  • Ovarian cancer: explore the new NICE age-related threshold for CA125
  • UKMEC: we discuss the key UKMEC changes, so you are up to date
  • Wheeze in preschool children:… or asthma? Join us to find out more
  • Nausea and vomiting of pregnancy: hear about updated RCOG guidance on investigation and management in primary care
  • And lots more key clinical updates - we typically cover 20-30 topics per full-day course!
