If you are eligible for the programme, there is a single process for registering and signing up for CEP courses. Click this link.

On completion of each CEP course, you will be issued with a certificate of completion for that course. This will state which FA has been evidenced.
When you have completed all six CEP courses and had a teaching observation and feedback (TOF) session, you will be issued with a certificate of programme completion: this is evidence of having achieved GMC FAs 1-7.
Certificates are valid for 5 years from their date of issue.
In order to keep your certification up-to-date, you must apply before the 5 year expiry date. Click this link to revalidate

If you are interested in developing further as an educator, you may undertake further study via a course entitled Clinical Education in Practice.
