Pay your annual renewal fee and stay enrolled

You must pay the annual renewal fee for Professional Competence in order to stay enrolled on your Professional Competence Scheme.

As you know, all doctors registered on the Specialist, General or Supervised Division of the Medical Council Register are required by law to enrol in a Professional Competence Scheme and record sufficient CPD and Clinical (Practice) Audit claims to meet their scheme requirements.

While the requirements for recording Professional Competence activities have been adjusted for 2020-2021 due to the COVID Pandemic, doctors will still be asked to make a declaration about their maintenance of professional competence during the 2021 annual retention process.
