Vascular Surgery update from August

11 June 2026

An updated Vascular Surgery curriculum is coming in August 2026 

The GMC has approved the revised Vascular Surgery curriculum, in line with the Excellence by Design standards for postgraduate medical education. The updated curriculum will come into effect from August this year. Trainees should move to the updated curriculum as they enter specialty training or progress within it, in accordance with the transition plan. 

We extend our thanks to the Vascular Surgery Specialty Advisory Committee and all stakeholders for their thoughtful contributions and feedback.
