CD 2 - Primary Care
 
General Practice 1
Emergency Medicine
Ophthalmology
ENT
Psychiatry
Paediatrics
General Medicine
Obstetrics and Gynaecology
Geriatrics
Dermatology

PEP has been developed to help you identify strengths and weaknesses in your knowledge base, and it can obviously be used in your own time, at home or in the practice.

PEP-2000 is more flexible and user-friendly than its predecessor, PEP-98, with better print options and the opportunity to select Multiple Choice Questions or Patient Management Problems separately.

The cost for members of the College is £45 for one CD and £75 for the two CD set. The non-members prices are £55 and £90 respectively. There are also multi-user discs (for use on more than one site, or by educational institutions) which cost £99 for one CD and £150 for the two CD set.

To obtain more information and details on how to order PEP-2000 please call the PEP Administrator at RCGP (Scotland) on 0131-260-6800 or email pep@rcgp-scotland.org.uk.

A more developed web page, including a live demonstration, is being developed and should be available in October 2000.
