About this free RCGP SCA training timer

This free SCA timer is designed for MRCGP GP registrars practising the RCGP Simulated Consultation Assessment. It helps you structure a timed consultation rehearsal, with clear prompts to support effective information gathering, shared decision making and safe consultation closure.

Use it during individual practice, peer role-play or GP training sessions to build confidence with consultation pacing. The timer is a practice aid and does not replace current RCGP guidance, local teaching or formal assessment requirements.
