Learning outcomes review
A review of the GDC’s learning outcomes in Preparing for Practice for each profession is currently underway. This document contains the current definition of a safe beginner that outlines the standard expected of those who qualify in the UK. We have been working with stakeholders through workshops and a reference group to identify changes and the results of the consultation on proposed changes be available in spring 2023.
In 2023, we expect to work with stakeholders on the implementation of the updated outcomes. Following the revision of the learning outcomes, we will seek to review the Standards for Education.
