eLearning courses

Created by GPs, for GPs - the College delivers over 150 peer-reviewed courses each year to develop your clinical knowledge and professional confidence.

Our award-winning eLearning is designed to fit around the realities of general practice. With flexible formats - from full courses and specialist hubs to five-minute videos and short podcasts - you can learn in a way that suits you. All CPD is free for RCGP members, and covers both clinical and non-clinical topics. Toolkits, pathways, and curated hubs bring together the resources you need, when you need them.

If you’re starting out, you’ll find tailored support through GP SelfTest, InnovAiT (the go-to journal for GP registrars), and our MRCGP preparation courses. For every stage of your career, RCGP eLearning ensures you stay informed and up to date with the latest evidence.

As your professional home, the RCGP is committed to helping you deliver the highest standards of patient care. Learn anywhere, anytime, earn CPD credits to put towards your appraisal or re-validation, and take the next step in your medical journey with confidence.
