Abstract
This article looks at the current training, the need for new old age psychiatry curriculum in the UK and the drivers for this.
Keywords: Curriculum; Old age psychiatry; Higher training
Key Points
1. The current old age psychiatry curriculum was developed in 2010 and updated in 2012.
2. The generic professional capabilities (GPC) aims to identify, simplify and clarify the important core professional capabilities doctors should possess at specialist registration.
3. Supervised learning experiences (SLE) will replace WPBA.
4. There is a need to review the current advanced curriculum for old age psychiatry in the UK.
