CESR and the Portfolio Pathway

To practice as a substantive Consultant in the UK, international medical graduates must be specialist registered with the GMC (General Medical Council). It's a lengthy process in which you'll need to partake in in-depth training and career development, either through the UK system via CCT or by having your overseas experience recognised using CESR / Portfolio Pathway.

CCT (Certificate of Completion of Training) and the CESR (Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Registration) / Portfolio Pathway both allow trainee doctors to get onto the specialist register. They both hold the same recognition, but the journey to getting them is slightly different. CCT is the route that UK doctors take and CESR is the route used to have overseas experienced acknowledged at the same level. CESR-CP sits somewhere in the middle allowing a combination of UK and overseas experience.

As of November 2023 the GMC is changing the evidence required from doctors wishing to join the Specialist or GP registers. The objective is to allow candidates to be able to use a wider range of evidence to demonstrate their knowledge skills and experience.
