Student Commendations | March 2020
Now more than ever, we want to take the time to really thank, and celebrate those students going the extra mile.
Commendations are a great way of providing positive feedback to the hard working individuals at the School of Medicine. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to nominate someone special!

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: Dir.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 monthly School newsletter.
