The island is completely bilingual with both English and Maltese holding official status . It also enjoys excellent communication links to Europe .This , together with the country ’ s long history of medical systems and healthcare excellence ( ranked fifth in the World Health Organization ’ s ranking of world health systems ), made Malta an optimal choice for Queen Mary ’ s global growth . |
Medical Licensing Assessment From 2022 , the General Medical Council ( GMC ) has introduced a Medical Licensing Assessment ( MLA ). It will allow those who obtain registration with a licence to practise medicine in the UK to demonstrate that they have met a common threshold for safe practice .
The MLA will be in two parts : a knowledge test set and run by the GMC , and an assessment delivered by medical schools , to evaluate students ’ clinical and professional skills . To obtain registration with a licence to practise , medical students must pass both parts of the MLA , as well as passing university finals and demonstrating their fitness to practise . |
