to develop excellent and enthusiastic doctors by ensuring we have excellent and enthusiastic teachers and trainers
Your Introductory Level, Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 certification is valid for 5 years after you complete it.
To maintain your CEP status you must revalidate every 5 years.
We do not currently offer revalidation of the Introductory Level as we would anticipate that you would have moved on to at least Level 1 within the 5 years.
