Dear member

For the Graduation Ceremony 8th May 2024 at Casino Maltese followed by a reception in excess of 150 people have booked and reservations made.

Attention new graduates as Specialists in Family Medicine.  This event is the conferring of the MMCFD i.e. the Membership of the Malta College of Family Doctors.  It should be obvious that those graduates who apply for full membership will get the MMCFD on the day and those who do not apply for full membership will not be given the MMCFD.  The MMCFD is the route to be conferred the MRCGP(Int); the corollary to that is no MMCFD no MRCGP(Int) – the College will liaise with the RCGP about this subsequent to the Graduation.

Those new graduates as Specialists in Family Medicine can find the application for full membership here: New Membership form 2022

During the graduation a photographer appointed by the MCFD will take the graduation pictures.  With a crowd of 150+ people refrain from taking own photos during the graduation.  After the individual certification cohort group photos will be taken.  Subsequent to the graduation a link will be provided to order the photos.
