This month we would like to celebrate 11 students who have received commendations in October. Congratulations! Thanks for the going the extra mile.
We want to recognise and celebrate outstanding performance amongst our students, on clinical placements and within the School of Medicine.
We often hear about excellence, and commendation forms are the formal system to record these instances, and just as importantly, to provide positive feedback to hard working individuals and organisations.

How to nominate
The Commendation Form is for a student to be recognised for activities where they have performed beyond expectations, including clinical skills, research activity, organising activities, helping others, dealing with unexpected events, leadership.
Visit VITAL to download a Commendation Form, they are stored in the ‘Administration folder’ under each year, for example: MBCHB Year 1 Content 2018/19 > Administration > Student commendation form.
Completed forms should be sent directly to the Student Welfare & Support of Studies Team: wellbeing.mbchb@liverpool.ac.uk.
Forms are then emailed to the student who is being commended, and you can upload this to your E-portfolio under the prizes section. Students who have received a commendation form are also celebrated in The Pulse, the regular School student newsletter.
