Academy of Medical Royal Colleges


Academy of Medical Royal Colleges


The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges (AoMRC) is the coordinating body for the United Kingdom and Ireland's 24 Medical Royal Colleges and Faculties. It ensures that patients are safely and properly cared for by setting standards for the way doctors are educated, trained and monitored throughout their careers. The Academy Council meet regularly to agree direction. The Council comprises the Presidents of the member Colleges and Faculties (plus the Chair of the Royal College of General Practitioners Council) and four coopted council members.

The Academy’s aim is to collate its member’s views, and coordinate activities to collectively influence and shape healthcare across the four nations of the UK. The Academy also plays a leading role particularly in the areas of clinical quality, public health and the education and training of doctors. The Academy also works closely with organisations such as the NHS, the General Medical Council and patient groups on projects designed to improve the quality of care, such as the Evidence-based Interventions Programme and the Medical Training Initiative.

Established in 1974 as the Conference of Medical Royal Colleges and their Faculties, it was renamed the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges in 1996.

It has established one Faculty of its own – The Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management (FMLM), which is jointly administered by the Royal Colleges of Physicians and of General Practitioners.
