I have been on a couple of courses recently and thought you guys might find the info useful:
Child Health Surveillance and Promotion
No longer compulsory for GP but very useful. I went on one arranged by Imperial College, held next door to the Brompton and thought it was excellent, with lots of useful and practical advice. The next course will be in February or March. Cost £290 Contact details:

(There was also a course held at Margate recently which is cheaper but I thought this course looked better.) Family Planning Theoretical Course This course is the theory part for the Diploma of the Faculty of Family Planning. It was held at St. Thomas' in London. This was a 4 day course, 2 days family planning, 2 days STI teaching (which totally puts you off sex). The latter part was not quite as good as I was expecting but I still learnt a lot overall. Cost £500 Contact details:

There is a link to the DFFP website which has list of courses on the left but beware these get booked up well in advance. I booked in June to attend in October.
