The Medical Council of India (MCI) has written to the deans of all medical colleges asking them to upload the time table for teaching of the revised competency-based Undergraduate (UG) curriculum on their websites latest by May 1. “It was decided earlier by the Board of Governors that the dean/principal of all medical colleges under the MCI would upload the yearly time table for UG teaching on their website latest by May 1,” the letter noted. It added that, as notified on the MCI website, the revised competency-based undergraduate curriculum is to be implemented from August 2019. The Dean/Principal of the medical colleges would play an important role in making this a success. The new skill-based, more hands-on training syllabus, which is open to annual revision, was last revised in 1997.
