Top award for AGCAS DVD
AGCAS's DVD Selection Centres for Specialty Training has won first prize in its category at the national Learning on Screen Awards 2009. The DVD was adjudged to be Best Non-Broadcast Education Programme. Other category winners include the British Library, the BBC, the Open University and Channel Four.
Selection Centres for Specialty Training was produced jointly by AGCAS and the South West Peninsula Deanery and directed by Peter Phillips of e.media at the University of Southampton. The programme's aim is to provide support for medical students and junior doctors who are preparing for assessment stations. Using genuine assessors and candidates, the programme shows what may happen in five different commonly-used medical selection centre scenarios.
The Learning on Screen judges took into consideration each entry's educational aims and how well these were met, as well as its technical quality. They were particularly taken with the way in which our programme treats the candidates and selectors.
Director Peter Phillips, now a freelance media producer, is currently working with AGCAS on a new DVD on assessment centres, sponsored by Graduate Prospects, HSBC and Enterprise Rent-A-Car. It is due to be released in summer 2009.
