RACGP Online Education Resource - gplearning
Whether you are Rural or Urban, Part time or Full time, needing to gain QA&CPD points or studying for the Fellowship examination - gplearning is a valuable tool available to assist.
gplearning is the College's highly interactive and easy-to-use online QA&CPD service designed by GPs for GPs. gplearning offers over 200 activities covering all areas of general practice and offers both Category 1 and 2 QA&CPD point activities.
gplearning is easy to access, navigate and use – and it's available 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Remember you do not need to complete the activities in a single session, you can come back to it at time that is suitable for you and the system will remember where you left off.
