2026 digital edition · Dr Naeem Aziz DGM FRCP · 1 min read
Name the registration objective
Write the register and specialty you wish to pursue, why it matters to your intended work and the current GMC guidance you have consulted. If your aim is solely Specialist SAS progression, you may not need this separate project now.
Registration objective and reason
Your response:
Current GMC guidance and specialty requirements consulted
Your response:
Compare requirements with your experience
Identify relevant experience and evidence, areas needing clarification, and access to any additional experience. Check verification, authentication, translation and information-handling instructions in the applicable guidance. Do not assume that an employer portfolio has already met them.
Existing relevant evidence and its limitations
Your response:
Main uncertainties and the authoritative source of advice
Your response:
Decide what to do next
Record whether to explore, proceed, defer or not pursue this objective now. If proceeding, identify the first practical step, required support and effect on your current work. This is a decision aid rather than a registration checklist.
