UKMLA/PLAB 1 Basic

Introduction:

When you think about applying for a job, do not follow the traditional advice to apply for as many jobs as possible, instead, think about your experience, the future that you want as well as the career path that bests suits you. Bearing that in mind, only apply for jobs that will support you to achieve your career ambitions.
In this video, you will get step by step guidance on how to approach your application, filling out each section in a way that makes you stand out. You will learn how to interpret the job description and the person specification for the purpose of your application. We look at the NHS application platforms for England and NHS Scotland. At the end of the video, you will be able to read two supporting information sections for two different job applications that led to the applicant being shortlisted for the interview. You will also be able to download a further guide that you can use as a template to secure the job you want.
We want to make your job application an easy and smooth experience for you. We take away the need to apply for hundreds of jobs before you secure a role.

Introduction:

What is a clinical audit and why as an International Medical Graduate should you care. As you settle into life as an international medical graduate in the UK or even as you prepare to join the UK workforce, you will come to realise that you are always expected to demonstrate that you have been involved in audits. There are two reasons, the first is that it improves patient care. The second reason is that it demonstrates your ability to work in a team. In this course, we will explain what a clinical audit is, how to get involved with audits and progress to leading them. We explain the basics of data collection and analysis. We explain how to get the evidence from your Trust once you have completed an audit. You will learn from the presentation template how to put your information together for a presentation in your Trust. Finally, we show you how to maximise the output from a single project and build up your portfolio (to learn more about building a portfolio, take the portfolio course).

The Clinical Audit

GMC Appraisal

It is very common to hear about International Medical Graduates who did not know they needed an appraisal in their first year of practice in the NHS. This then creates anxiety about revalidation. There is enough to be anxious about as an IMG in the UK. Do not add the annual appraisal to the list.
Follow us on this journey where we will share with you how exactly you can navigate getting your first appraisal. From completing the form, to scheduling the meeting with your
appraiser. We have got everything covered.
