The West African College of Physicians’ (WACP) mission is to improve the health of West Africans through excellence in the training of medical specialists, and the provision of high quality health care. The WACP has developed a close and effective partnership with the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) over the past decade.

With support from the Ecobank Foundation, the WACP and the RCP are delivering a final “Doctors as Educators” training course as part of the Ecobank-funded M-PACT Project (MDG 6 Partnership for African Clinical Training).

The course is open only to doctors who have passed their membership examination, i.e. Senior Registrars, fellows and examiners. Being a faculty member of a teaching hospital (or intent to become one) will be an advantage.

Attendance is limited to 30 participants, and international participants are welcome.
