We would like to invite you to the MCEM mock exam being held on Tuesday 20th September 2016 in Gloucestershire Royal Hospital.  The mock is an excellent opportunity to prepare for the MCEM (Membership of the College of Emergency Medicine) Part B and C examinations.

The revision day will consist of a lecture on exam technique followed by a practice SAQ paper and OSCE circuit.  The spaces on this training day are limited (16 maximum for OSCE circuit) so please register via the online registration form below.

Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis and priority given to ACCS trainees whose base specialty is Emergency Medicine.  If you are a non-EM ACCS trainee and would like to enrol on the day and sit the mock exam this may be possible depending on the number of EM trainees who register.

Please let Trish Trim know if you would like to sit the mock as a non-EM trainee.  

If you have passed the exam or are a non-EM ACCS trainee and do not wish to sit the mock then it would be really helpful if you could support the day by helping with the OSCE circuit.  The trainers in your Trust have agreed that you can attend in such a capacity. Being involved in OSCEs is a really useful learning experience and will give you an excellent insight into how exams are administered and marked. This will be of use for any future post-graduate exams.

Please register your interest here ASAP to secure your place.  I look forward to seeing you on the day.  Best wishes, Victoria Stacey, ACCS TPD, Consultant in Emergency Medicine, Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

 

N.B. trainees can park in the Lido car park opposite the Education Centre.
