Feedback from previous Annual Conferences...

@gregjirving: #RCGPAC The best RCGP conference to date. Right time, right place, right people.

 

@camilla_bhakri: 1 AiT ticket to #rcgpac - £192. The inspiration to go back to work and change the world just a little - priceless!

 

"The quality of the programme and speakers was exceptional and a highly enjoyable way to engage in CPD - will definitely look to come again next year."

 

"It was all fantastic and has made me more enthusiastic about being in this profession."

 

"Great conference - felt privileged to be there."

 

"This was once again a fantastic and inspiring conference. Delivering ideas, inspiration and education all packed into a few days. It was very much worth taking time away from practice to attend."

RCGP Annual Conference 2012

About the Conference

 

About the Conference

October 2012 sees the next RCGP Annual Primary Care Conference take place in Glasgow and we very much look forward to welcoming many of you for what promises to be our biggest Conference yet.

 

The Conference is the must attend event for GPs and practice team colleagues, showcasing the latest clinical and policy developments across the UK and brings together an impressive range of national and international speakers.
 
A packed programme ensures there is something to suit the whole practice team.

 

The Conference updates delegates on matters relevant to their practice and informs and educates on the latest technological developments.

 

This year's Conference theme is Global General Practice where we shall be:

- celebrating best practice in the healthcare services we deliver in the UK; and

- welcoming international speakers and colleagues to learn about innovative practice in other parts of the world.


There are a wide variety of small seminars and workshops focusing on clinical updates, with opportunities to learn new skills and exchange ideas using a range of educational techniques.
 
There are many opportunities to network and exchange ideas with fellow delegates - over 1,700 primary care professionals are expected to attend. The extensive social programme will also allow time for some fun and relaxation!

 

Attending the Conference will help your day-to-day practice and enhance your patient care. Previous attendees have commented that the opportunity to hear from world-class healthcare experts and gather with fellow RCGP members to discuss key issues of the day left them feeling energised and proud to be a GP.

 

Our biggest programme of concurrent sessions to date will ensure there is something for everyone. Alongside our extensive clinical stream are sessions focussing on education, policy, commissioning and patients as well as specific sessions for First5 GPs, AiTs and the wider practice team. In addition, for the first time ever at an RCGP conference, there will be the opportunity for First5 GPs, AiTs and members of the RCGP Junior International Committee to attend bespoke pre-conference sessions.

 

Finally, another first in 2012 will be our collaboration with the Society for Academic Primary Care (SAPC), who will share the first day of our conference with us, providing an excellent opportunity for specialist academic input to our opening programme.


As always, this will be different from any other conference you attend this year. We look forward to welcoming you to Glasgow in 2012 and giving you a conference to remember!
