There are a team of accredited and trained microbiology consultants who support the chief examiner and who assist with setting and marking of the microbiology examinations each year. The Chief Examiner is also supported by the RCPA management staff. The microbiology curriculum and assessment processes are continually being modernised and update to reflect modern assessment practises.
