What we are doing
Established in December 2015, ECSACoP is rewriting the way in which postgraduate medical education is delivered and assessed in East, Central and Southern Africa. With a common curriculum and standardised training methodologies, the college's postgraduate medical qualification will be accepted as gold standard throughout the region.
The RCP is supporting ECSACoP's Council during this formative period by providing mentorship, technical support and access to a range of external experts to advise on specific challenges faced.
College without Walls
ECSACoP is a 'College without Walls', with training centres in Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe set to open in 2018. In addition to following a training curriculum developed by leading physicians from East, Central and Southern Africa for the region's specific health challenges, the new cadre of physicians trained will be better equipped to lead, manage and steward the vital resources that can dramatically improve health outcomes for all, especially those in remote or difficult-to-reach communities.
Increasing the number of physicians, and transforming their education at the same time, has the potential to accelerate health equity and inclusive economic growth. ECSACoP itself is designed to become self-sustaining after a number of years. Once established, examinations, courses and workshops will become income generators for the college, allowing its council to reinvest in scholarships for additional trainees.
