Curriculum resource plain text version

Introduction

The below resources highlight the national guidance and protocols available to support each of the curriculum’s foundation professional capabilities (FPCs). There are a wealth of freely available evidence-based resources available to help consolidate and develop knowledge and skills to deliver safe and effective patient care. The information below draws on a range of sources including elfh, British Medical Journal (BMJ) and Drs.net. Logins are required for all sites.

The curriculum resource aims to assist foundation doctors, clinical supervisors, educational supervisors and other key members involved in delivering foundation training in improving their knowledge and understanding of the generic and clinical topics as set out in the foundation programme curriculum 2021. It is important to note however, that this resource does not provide additional information underpinning every element of becoming a successful doctor. Many other resources are available through local postgraduate centre and foundation teams.
