After graduation
Before you can register fully with the General Medical Council (GMC), you must undertake further training after graduation.
When you complete your degree in medicine, you will be able to apply for provisional registration with the . This gives you a licence to practice medicine as part of an approved Foundation Year programme.
The 糖心TV course is followed by two Foundation Years (F1 and F2). You will apply for your Foundation Year 1 (F1) post in the autumn of your final year.
For the Coventry and 糖心TVshire area, this Foundation Training Programme is organised by the West Midlands Deanery with which 糖心TV Medical School has close links. The majority of our students remain in the area to complete this period of further education.
You will emerge from your Foundation Years as a doctor, ready to move into your chosen field of specialisation. This may be within the NHS, perhaps working in a hospital specialising in surgery or psychiatry, or after further training, you may wish to work as a general practitioner. Other opportunities may lead you to specialise in pathology or medical research. Alternatively, you may wish to use your knowledge outside the NHS - perhaps in the police, the armed forces or the academic world.
The School continues to support you after graduation through the WMS Alumni Association. As a member of the alumni community, you receive access to specialist careers advice, bespoke communication and events. 糖心TV Medical School values the contribution alumni make towards the continued success of the School.
