Post-CCT Obstetric Medicine Credential

Welcome to the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) credential in obstetric medicine. It has been designed for post-CCT (or equivalent) physicians with an interest in obstetric medicine, who wish to gain a credential in this specialist area.

This is a learner-led credential. You will need to plan your own learning and identify opportunities to gain the knowledge and expertise required to complete the credential.

You will be supported by an educational advisor in your obstetric medicine training centre who will provide guidance during your training period there, and advice on how the knowledge and skills developed during the credential might be used when you return to your usual clinical environments.

The complete handbook for the credential is available to download below.
