resource sessions, seminars, ward rounds and skills training session.<br />

Assessments<br />

A range of formative and summative assessment methods are used to permit the learner to<br />

demonstrate applied competence. Integrated assessment methods include theory and practical<br />

skills evaluation.<br />

Formative assessment is ongoing and both informal and formal. Summative assessment is done<br />

on completion of each Phase and involves external examiners.<br />

Final Summative Evaluation is done through a national examination set by the Family Medicine<br />

Education Consortium (FAMEC) This exam has both theoretical and practical components.<br />

Articulation<br />

The training programme is independent of existing training programmes offered by the Health<br />

Sciences Faculty through its Schools of Medicine, Nursing and Allied Health Professions. This<br />

programme addresses a unique gap in the health care system and does not substitute or<br />

oppose any other programme.<br />

Horizontal articulation: Learners with this qualification may proceed to specialise in clinical<br />

practice in relevant disciplines such as clinical forensics, palliative care, emergency medicine,<br />

orthopaedics, infectious diseases, chronic diseases, military medicine, hospital administration,<br />

clinical education by obtaining postgraduate certificates in these areas.<br />

Vertical articulation: Various post-graduate possibilities exist including medical education,<br />
