Case presentations and journal club presentations are not included as they are part of the curricula requirements and happen as part of a regular educational programme.
For regional/national/international presentations, evidence needs to be presented of where the presentation occurred (not just the PowerPoint slides). For example, printout of the meeting, programme which identifies the speaker, letter of acceptance, conference abstract and so forth. For local presentations, the PowerPoint slides need to be accompanied by a letter on headed paper from the supervisor or lead of the programme about the presentation done. It is essential for the letter to clarify that the presentation was done outside a regular educational programme.
Presentations of original research which lead to PhD/MD already credited in Domain 7 can also be credited here. Teaching presentations are excluded here (credit in Domain 8).
‘I have presented at a regional, national or international meeting’: it doesn’t matter where the meeting was held - it’s the body which counts. A national meeting would be organised by a national body such as RCPsych, RCP, BMA. ‘Regional’ implies a meeting of a regional organisation such as NW Division RCPsych (even if held in the hospital where the trainee was working at the time).
Presentations as part of deanery/HEE teaching for regional trainees, teaching for foundation trainees or medical students are not counted in this section, but can be counted in Domain 8 (Teaching).
Presentations of audit/QIP can be scored here, however the same audit project cannot be used for credit in both this section and Domain 6 if presented locally. Marks can be awarded if a local audit/QIP has been presented regionally, nationally or internationally.
Presentation of a piece of research which has led to MD/PhD credited in Domain 7 – Research can be credited here as well.

For local presentations, the PowerPoint slides need to be accompanied by a letter on headed paper from the supervisor or lead of the programme about the presentation done. It is essential for the letter to clarify that the presentation was done outside a regular educational programme.
Presentations of original research which lead to PhD/MD already credited in Domain 7 can also be credited here. Teaching presentations are excluded here (credit in Domain 8).
‘I have presented at a regional, national or international meeting’: it doesn’t matter where the meeting was held - it’s the body which counts. A national meeting would be organised by a national body such as RCPsych, RCP, BMA. ‘Regional’ implies a meeting of a regional organisation such as NW Division RCPsych (even if held in the hospital where the trainee was working at the time).
Presentations as part of deanery/HEE teaching for regional trainees, teaching for foundation trainees or medical students are not counted in this section, but can be counted in Domain 8 (Teaching).
Presentations of audit/QIP can be scored here, however the same audit project cannot be used for credit in both this section and Domain 6 if presented locally. Marks can be awarded if a local audit/QIP has been presented regionally, nationally or internationally.
Presentation of a piece of research which has led to MD/PhD credited in Domain 7 – Research can be credited here as well.

Case presentations and journal club presentations are not included as they are part of the curricula requirements and happen as part of a regular educational programme.
For regional/national/international presentations, evidence needs to be presented of where the presentation occurred (not just the PowerPoint slides). For example, printout of the meeting, programme which identifies the speaker, letter of acceptance, conference abstract and so forth. For local presentations, the PowerPoint slides need to be accompanied by a letter on headed paper from the supervisor or lead of the programme about the presentation done.
