<strong>Training</strong><br />
• No mention of self certification needing to be approved by BSCCP.<br />
Add ‘Support of a professional society is required’.<br />
• End of gr<strong>and</strong>father option 2010.<br />
• ‘It is considered by the NHSCSP that independent colposcopy<br />
should not be conducted in the NHS, unless by BSCCP certificated<br />
practitioners.’<br />
Re-certification<br />
• Re-certification requires audit of activity but again not to be<br />
recognized necessarily by BSCCP. ‘The NHSCSP considers<br />
compliance with the BSCCP re-certification process to be highly<br />
desirable. Continued practice should be assured with CPD <strong>and</strong><br />
regular audit. All colposcopists should have their practice discussed<br />
as part of their annual general appraisal.’
