Domain 1 - Postgraduate Medical Qualifications
Masters qualification in a relevant field, such as quality improvement, patient safety, leadership, management, ultrasound, genetics
Score
5
Comments
Only fully completed qualifications with certificate or official letter of proof of outcome will be counted.
The definition of ‘Masters’ used here represents a period of training in a nationally recognised university-associated institution separate to standard undergraduate and postgraduate training programmes. A mandatory element of achieving a ‘Masters’ will be the submission of an essay or dissertation, deemed of sufficient quality and content by external assessors and/or an examination process. A Masters would be expected to cover a specific area of learning for example leadership, management, education or an allied field of medicine not covered in detail by standard medical student or postgraduate curricula.
For the above reason Non-UK Masters qualifications in Obstetrics and Gynaecology cannot generally be counted. The rationale for this decision is that they represent a period of training in a non-UK training hospital associated with a submission of an essay or audit, the equivalent of which would not count as a Masters in the UK and as such this would unfairly advantage those trainees who have used this to score marks in this category. However, we do acknowledge that there are Masters qualifications that would count and that these should evidence a period of learning in a recognised institution, with an assessment by external assessors of a dissertation and or examination process. It would be expected to cover a specific area of learning for example leadership, management or education, as detailed and explained in the definition provided in the above point – please ensure any claim made meets the requirements of this definition and that you are able to sufficiently evidence this.
Further specific common examples, for purposes of clarity, are Masters in Obstetrics and Gynaecology from Egypt or India, which are qualifications at the level of MRCOG Parts 2 and 3 and are therefore also not equivalent to a UK Masters in a specialist subject and so cannot be counted. This may not be limited to the countries mentioned.
