Bringing together national guidance, resources produced and accredited by the RCGP, and resources from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) and the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare (FSRH), the Women's Health Library is a resource relevant to GPs and other primary healthcare professionals.

The Library is divided into four sections for ease of use with the free resources clearly marked:

• Maternal Health
• Sexual and Reproductive Health
• Pre-Menopause
• Peri/Post Menopause

Access the library here.

If you applied for your FRT status via the GMC GP trainer/recognised trainer route, you will need:

• To hold a current license to practice from GMC/NMC.
• Each yearly subscription paid when due.
• Recertification of DFSRH/MFSRH/FFSRH is up to date.
• 50 credits in core SRH (in this total you may count the credits used to recertify your FFSRH/MFSRH/FSRH Diploma qualification).

If you applied for your FRT status via any other FRT approved route, you will need:

• To hold a current license to practice from GMC/NMC.
• Each yearly subscription paid when due.
• Recertification of primary qualification is up to date.
• 50 credits in core SRH (in this total you may count the credits used to recertify your primary qualification).
• 10 credits for participation in approved training in adult educational techniques including those approved by other Colleges (RCOG/RCP/RCGP/RCN).
• Evidence of at least 15 teaching activities over 5 years

You can find a calendar of CPD courses, meetings and events on our website.

Recertification is due every five years. Your recertification due date will be shared with you once you have achieved your FRT status. You can also login to your MyFSRH and see your recertification. 

You will also receive an email reminder 6 months before your recertification is due. Please do make sure your email address is up to date and current with FSRH. 

There is no charge to recertify as this is a benefit included in your annual membership fee. However, you must have paid your membership fee continuously for the five years leading up to recertifying.

If you have not kept your membership current, and wish to recertify, please contact us at education@fsrh.org or 020 7724 5534 to discuss your options. You will need to pay your backdated membership fees – at current subscription levels.

If you do not apply for recertification within six weeks of the date due, your qualification is deemed to have lapsed. You must cease training until your FRT status has been recertified.

 If you apply to be recertified more than 12 months after your recertification date, the General Training Committee has the discretion to approve your application, under two conditions:

1. You have met all the CPD requirements
2. You provide a letter from your General Training Programme Director supporting your application.
