RACGP Faculty Events

The Focussed Psychological Strategies (FPS) CPD case-based discussions is a continuing professional development activity that has been designed to support GPs who are already implementing FPS with patients, evaluating their practice, and further developing their skills. Each participant will present a case and through peer-group discussions, participants will extend their FPS skills by exploring the intervention methods they currently use. Participants will also review challenging cases and develop strategies for addressing barriers to achieving best practice.

This activity is offered on Zoom and comprises of four, two-hour case-based discussion sessions from 5.30-7.30pm AEST on Monday 10 August, 24 August, 7 September and 21 September 2026.
