If youโ€™re an EM consultant or post-FRCEM doctor in training and are interested in getting involved in RCEM exams, come along to our training day and then join one of the SBA groups - Primary, MRCEM or FRCEM. Great for CPD, networking and supporting your local trainees.

Enjoying the @RCEMpresident address from home, rather than from Bournemouth, due to bloominโ€™ covid. At least I get cuddles from Ripley. Awesome tips on teaching clinical reasoning. #RCEMcpd

Manjeet was the Lead examiner for our Fellowship exam. He put so much into his role and there are so many trainees and now Consultants who benefited from his support. The specialty, his team and RCEM will miss him very much @RCollEM @UHDBTrust @RCEMdean @EmilyBeet1
It is with deep sadness that we share the news that we've lost a colleague. Mr Manjeet Singh Riyat was a hugely respected Emergency Consultant at Royal Derby Hospital uhdb.nhs.uk/latest-news/tribโ€ฆ
