I am a visiting fellow at the Institute
of Education of London University,

quality monitoring of training practices.
More recently I have been intimately involved in the development of the Royal College of General Practitioners' curriculum, assessment programme and electronic portfolio.
I have been an active supporter of the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Postgraduate Medical School since inception and gave the keynote presentation (on informal learning) at the first stakeholder conference.
