NES Medicine is responsible for the commissioning and delivery of postgraduate medical education in Scotland
This training is delivered in general practices and hospitals in the territorial health boards to standards set by the General Medical Council (GMC). The Medical Directorate's role is to oversee the training, manage the trainee's progress through the training programme and ensure the training is delivered to the GMC standards.
