Changes to the 2.5-day PITstop advanced diabetes course accreditation

We have decided to change the way the 2.5-day PITstop advanced course (PITstop) is accredited, moving away from University Accreditation and applying for RCGP accreditation to ensure we continue to meet the high standard we strive to maintain. At present PITstop is credit rated with Greenwich University (15 credits at level 5). To obtain the additional 15 credits, students have 12 months from day 1 of their course, to submit a completed competency document (signed by a local assessor) and a 1500-word reflective report about one of their insulin or GLP-1 Agonist initiations. In a cohort of 24, on average, 2-3 students choose to submit.
