Elevate Your Teaching Skills with The Clinicians' RoadMap and MDDUS

At The Clinicians’ RoadMap, our mission has always been simple: to make high-quality teaching development more practical, accessible, and relevant to real clinical life in the UK. Our live online Teach the Teacher course was built for busy clinicians who want straightforward, repeatable methods for planning teaching, explaining clearly, engaging learners, and turning everyday teaching activity into portfolio-ready evidence. The course is clinician-led, academically grounded, and designed around the realities of NHS practice rather than abstract educational jargon.

Why This Collaboration Matters

This collaboration is an important one for us. Both organisations place clear value on professional development that is relevant and practically useful. In a similar way, our course focuses on teaching as a practical clinical skill. It improves supervision, communication, team development, and learner support. Additionally, it helps clinicians strengthen the evidence they can bring to training applications, appraisal, and wider career progression.

The Importance of Teaching in Clinical Practice

For many clinicians, teaching is already part of daily work. This includes explaining cases on the ward, supervising juniors, leading tutorials, supporting students, or giving feedback after procedures and clinics. Yet formal preparation for teaching is often limited. This creates a gap between what clinicians are expected to do and the support they actually receive in developing those skills.

Our course was designed to help address that gap with methods that are practical, efficient, and easy to apply immediately. This is especially relevant for clinicians who are building evidence for specialty applications, CESR or Portfolio Pathway work, appraisal, or supervisory roles.

Building Confidence and Credibility

Our course is structured not only to improve confidence in teaching but also to help participants document that development in a way that is credible and useful. The live workshop carries 6 CPD points, with an additional optional complimentary written assignment offering the opportunity to reach 12 CPD points in total.

Engaging with MDDUS Members

We are particularly pleased that this collaboration helps bring our course to an audience already engaged in professional development and reflective practice. We are proud that our Teach the Teacher course is being shared with MDDUS members as part of that wider professional development landscape.

A Positive Step Forward

For us, this is a positive step forward. It reflects the growing importance of education that is credible, relevant, and fairly priced. It reinforces our commitment to supporting clinicians with teaching development that is both clinically grounded and professionally useful.

Take the Next Step in Your Teaching Journey

If you are an MDDUS member and have been thinking about developing your teaching in a way that is practical, portfolio-relevant, and tailored to UK clinical practice, this collaboration is a great opportunity to explore that next step.
