Royal College of Pathologists RCPATH
The Royal College of Pathologists is an official association with charitable status that is concerned with all aspects of pathology academia and practise. It is made up of Fellows, Affiliates, and trainees who are supported by personnel headquartered in the College's London offices. The College is a non-profit organisation with around 11,000 members globally. The vast majority of members are doctors and scientists who work in UK hospitals and universities. The College is responsible for the education of pathologists and scientists in 17 different fields, including cellular pathology, haematology, clinical biochemistry, and medical microbiology. The college does not demand a precise number of CPD hours; instead, members should explain any credit shortages at evaluation, although the college makes no requirements on how many CPD hours should be completed.
