GEN-C represents a collaboration between the European Chiropractors Union (ECU) (via its educational arm the European Academy of Chiropractic), Chiropractic Australia (CA) and the Royal College of Chiropractors (RCC). All three organisations have a long history of providing high quality continuing professional development to the chiropractic profession in their local regions. The precedent for working together was established with the partnership formed to produce the leading chiropractic journal Chiropractic and Manual Therapies which is published by BioMed Central Ltd as part of the global publisher Springer Nature.

As a relatively small profession jointly contributing to the development of the journal, and now the formation of GEN-C creating an online continuing professional development platform allows for pooling of resources to produce high-quality educational programs that will assist clinicians to improve patient care and clinical outcomes.

The GEN-C platform includes expert clinicians, researchers and academics from within the chiropractic profession as well as other musculoskeletal experts from around the globe contributing to the development of online modules, regular journal articles to review and interviews and discussions with recognised experts to provide a source of continuing professional development that has clinicians' needs at the forefront of our goals.
