Being developed
Our goal here is to make complex educational theory as practical and as accessible as possible for busy medical teachers.
To stimulate you, reduce duplication of work and help add creativity to your educational programme.
The universal GP Training website for everyone, not just Bradford. Created in 2002 by Dr Ramesh Mehay

One of our Programme Directors loves this clip. He writes…
The serious point is that we don’t always need to solve problems and that being empathetic can be enough on it’s own. I heard empathy is the single most effective CBT intervention (can’t quote the evidence however).
Bradford VTS was created by Dr. Ramesh Mehay, a Programme Director for Bradford GP Training Scheme back in 2001. Over the years, it has seen many permutations. At the time, there were very few resources for GP trainees and their trainers so Bradford decided to create one FOR EVERYONE.
So, we see Bradford VTS as the INDEPENDENT vocational training scheme website providing a wealth of free medical resources for GP trainees, their trainers and TPDs everywhere and anywhere. We also welcome other health professionals – as we know the site is used by both those qualified and in training – such as Associate Physicians, ANPs, Medical & Nursing Students.
Our fundamental belief is to openly and freely share knowledge to help learn and develop with each other. Feel free to use the information – as long as it is not for a commercial purpose.
We have a wealth of downloadable resources and we also welcome copyright-free educational material from all our users to help build our rich resource (send to bradfordvts@gmail.com).
Our sections on (medical) COMMUNICATION SKILLS and (medical) TEACHING & LEARNING are perhaps the best and most comprehensive on the world wide web (see white-on-black menu header section on the homepage).
