We’re evolving to meet the future needs of our members – delivering more value, more visibility and more ways to connect.
Guided by member feedback and insight from the RSM community, a series of exciting updates have been introduced to celebrate belonging, open up access to learning, and strengthen connections across the healthcare profession.
New post-nominals – a mark of belonging
Introduced in April 2025, eligible members can now proudly use the post-nominals FRSM as a visible symbol of belonging to a global community of healthcare professionals.
It’s not a qualification but a mark of professionalism, connection and shared purpose. Add them to your CV, email signature, business card or LinkedIn profile to highlight your commitment to advancing medicine.
Free access to most member-led education events
From January 2026, membership will include free access for members to the majority of RSM education events, driven by our experts across specialist Sections - opening up even greater opportunities for learning and CPD throughout the year.
With programmes covering more than 50 medical specialties, members can learn from leading experts, collaborate across disciplines and stay at the forefront of innovation.
“This change reflects what many of you have asked for – greater access to learning and CPD opportunities,” said Professor Gillian Leng CBE, President. “We hope it makes it easier to engage with our programmes throughout the year.”
