It is recognised that study represents a substantial financial investment for most people working in the primary health care sector. The Faculty works hard to ensure that the best value possible is obtained in terms of good quality course material, good tutors at residentials and at audio-conferences, on and off-line tutor support, a congenial atmosphere at residentials, and smooth programme co-ordination.
