How do I recertify my Faculty Registered Trainer (FRT) status?

Modified on Wed, 26 Apr 2023 at 08:00 PM

If you applied for your FRT status via the GMC GP trainer/recognised trainer route, you will need;

  • To hold a current license to practise from GMC/NMC
  • Each yearly subscription paid when due
  • Recertification of DFSRH/MFSRH/FFSRH is up to date
  • 50 credits in core SRH (in this total you may count the credits used to recertify your primary qualification)


If you applied for your FRT status via any other FRT approved route, you will need:

  • To hold a current license to practise from GMC/NMC
  • Each yearly subscription paid when due
  • Recertification of primary qualification is up to date
  • 50 credits in core SRH (in this total you may count the credits used to recertify your primary qualification)
  • 10 credits for participation in approved training in adult educational techniques including those approved by other Colleges (RCOG/RCP/RCGP/RCN)
  • Evidence of at least 15 teaching activities over 5 years


What happens if I'm late to apply?
