Overview

BOOKINGS ARE NOW CLOSED

The New Consultants' Day is a new event, intended to help and support anyone who has recently been appointed to a consultant post, or who will very soon be taking one up. It is appropriate for all pathology specialties and much of the content will be suitable for both medical consultants and consultant clinical scientists (with the exception of the GMC and BMA presentations). 

You will hear from experienced consultants on a range of topics such as how to prepare a business case to secure resources, how to set up new services and how best to deal with complaints, and learn more about appraisal, revalidation and pension arrangements, among other things. To register, you should ideally have been appointed to a consultant post within the last year, or have passed FRCPath and/or made a successful CESR application and expect to be appointed to a consultant within the next year. 

This event will be held face to face at the Royal College of Pathologists building, 6 Alie Street, London E1 8QT.
