RCGP Scotland’s Online Self
Assessment Learning Tool for GPs in the UK
What is nPEP?
RCGP Scotland has designed and developed nPEP;
the self assessment learning tool that reflects the methodology of
the nMRCGP summative examination.
nPEP is an online self assessment learning
tool aimed mainly at Specialist Registrars in General Practice (SpR
GP). It is also an excellent learning tool for established GPs in
the UK to identify specific educational needs and can be used as a
means of managing Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
nPEP includes a total of 140 questions/items
across all relevant RCGP Curriculum Statements. Each clinical topic
has seven questions/items written by GPs working in clinical
practice. Most scenarios therefore, reflect real clinical events
encountered in one’s surgery.
All questions/items have associated supporting
material. This includes book and online linked references combined
with relevant feedback provided by the writers. Both the
referencing and feedback are updated every 6 months.
A report is automatically generated at the end
of the test with your overall and subject-specific score. You will
also be able to go back to individual questions and review all
reference material to support you in your self learning revision
work.
