Tutors’ Conference
This is an annual meeting for all GP tutors who teach on our courses. It provides updates on what is happening in the primary care teaching department, as well as the medical school as a whole. It is a valuable opportunity to meet fellow tutors, discuss important issues and learn about new developments.
All tutors will receive an invitation once the upcoming conference date is confirmed. It is usually held in May or June.
Other Educational Events
Each course (for example, Patient and Doctor 1, Communication Skills, Year 5) has its own training events throughout the academic year. Tutors will be informed about these via email. If you would like any further information, please contact Dr Julian Hancock at julian.hancock@phc.ox.ac.uk.
