Past Award winners
The first eLearning Awards took place in June 2023 to thank and celebrate our contributors. The Awards have been held annually thereafter at the RCPsych International Congress in collaboration with the RCPsych Publishing team, at the Publishing and eLearning Awards and Reception. Each year's Awards cover the period from 1 May to 30 April for modules and podcasts published/updated in the last 2 years, looking at statistics and learner feedback. We also award an Editor's special award, a Reviewer recognition award and a Project of the year award. Allocation of each award is reviewed and selected by the CPD eLearning/MRCPsych eLearning Editor and Deputy Editor.
Below is an overview of all eLearning Awards to date. Many thanks to all our contributors to RCPsych eLearning resources and congratulations!
