SEALS (Standards for Educational Activity and Learning in Scotland)

As you may know, CORAS (Course Organisers Registration & Assurance Scheme) ensured all educational activity promoted through NHS Education for Scotland (NES) met appropriate quality standards. Now that NHS Education for Scotland is a single Scotland-Wide Deanery, we are happy to introduce our new educational quality assurance scheme which will now replace CORAS - SEALS (Standards for Educational Activity and Learning in Scotland)

SEALS aims to ensure that all educational activity promoted through NHS Education for Scotland (NES) meets appropriate quality standards, and makes reference to the standards outlined in the Department of Health Knowledge and Skills Framework (KSF) and the RCGP Curriculum for General Practitioners.

SEALS has been approved by NES as a means of improving the standard of educational events. It is designed to:

• Enable participants to meet their educational needs
• Assist in building Personal Development Plans
• Improve the quality of learning events
• Promote good practice in clinical governance
