What changed this month

The living curriculum, in public

Guidance is watched for change; when a cornerstone guideline moves, the affected teaching is reviewed, re-signed and re-dated by a named clinician.

Each entry names the module, the change, the signer and the date. The list is read from the learning platform; where it cannot load, see the change log.

Every programme of MD Acumen sits under one of the seven bars of the header; nothing is deleted when pages move. Home
