Why provide and review content for check?
In addition to participating in the creation of a valuable education resource, contributing authors can apply for 40 Category 1 QI&CPD points under the ‘Peer review journal article module’ for writing material that is published. Peer reviewers can self-claim two category 2 QI&CPD points for each hour they spend on the activity.
Authors and reviewers also derive other benefits from participating in the check program. Some brief testimonials are included below:
"It was good for me to have the opportunity to review my own knowledge and practice, based on needing to reference the case with up-to-date literature to ensure the recommendations were accurate, so thanks for giving me the chance to do it".
"Writing cases is enjoyable and also a great opportunity to learn more about important and common topics".
