Education at the College

The College’s mission is to set standards to improve women’s health and the clinical practice of obstetrics and gynaecology both in the UK and across the world. One of the principal means of achieving this aim is through the College’s provision of education, training, assessment and professional development.

The College’s work in examinations and assessment has always been a core activity. Following its foundation in 1929 as the British College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, the College held its first examinations for Membership in 1931. Today, the College runs two principal examinations: the Membership examination (MRCOG) and the Diploma examination (DRCOG).

Please read our Education, training and professional development brochure for more information.
