What is Hot Topics?

Medcast, one of Australia’s leading medical education providers, has joined forces with Britain’s market leader in GP CPD, NB Medical, to bring you a CPD opportunity like no other – Hot Topics.

The Hot Topics GP Update course aims to update GPs with the latest developments in the primary care literature and to help you deliver better patient care. The course revolves around short, engaging presentations that merge recent clinical evidence with real-life clinical scenarios.

And like all Medcast courses, all content is completely independent and free of external influence.

The 2022 course will be run both as a series of live webinar events, and in the traditional face-to-face format.  Both formats are delivered by experienced Australian and UK GP medical educators, and are designed to be snappy, focused, and interactive.  They will cover recent updates in evidence and guidelines through a series of general practice case presentations.

In addition you will also receive:

• Access to the four webinars as 'on-demand' recordings (webinar series only)
• Online version of NB Medical Hot Topics GP Update course book (UK), including summaries of approximately 150 clinical Hot Topics (over 450 pages)
• Online version of the Australian supplements, including Keep It Simple Summaries (KISSs)
