RCPsych Perinatal Psychiatry Masterclass Series is an NHS England Workforce, Training and Education(NHSE) - funded series of Masterclass Programmes for new consultants, senior trainees and SAS psychiatrists.
We are thrilled to announce that the RCPsych Perinatal Psychiatry Masterclass Series is reopening and will run from Autumn 2024 to Summer 2025.
This Masterclass Series is an NHS England Workforce, Training and Education (NHSE) - funded series of masterclass programmes for new consultants, senior trainees and SAS psychiatrists in perinatal psychiatry. With places funded by NHSE for psychiatrists working in the NHS in England, additional self-funded places will be available for psychiatrists working in the devolved nations and the Republic of Ireland.
Since the pandemic, the programmes have been run online via Zoom. We are delighted that the first day of each of the programmes will now be running face-to-face at the Royal College of Psychiatrists in London and the remainder online via Zoom. We hope that this will enhance networking and peer support opportunities.
