GPSA research project on the best practice learning environment

We are trialling a benchmarking and quality improvement tool to support training practices to meet best practice standards in vocational training. Your experiences and expectations in GP training are needed to help us test and refine this tool to ensure that it is feasible and appropriate for use in the general practice context. We are seeking feedback on our tool from anyone involved in GP training. Click here https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CJQQ62G
