| Trainees whose CCT date is in April/May they are seen as part of the February ARCPs and are then given their Outcome 6 via paper | |
| Anaesthetics | Years 1, 3, 5 and 7 are seen face to face while years 2, 4 and 6 are paper only |
...
In Obs and Gynae years 1, 3 and 6 are paper and years 2, 5 and 7 are face to face.
All but the Anaesthetic and year 1 ACCS Anaes Outcome forms are completed on Eportfolio. The panel is created which then opens up the trainee records for the panel members to see.
| For Anaesthetics each panel member must assign the outcome on eportfolio, Chair agrees and signs off, Admin must then sign off and assign the outcome to the trainee which then opens up the file for that trainee for the forthcoming year * | ||
| ICM | All trainees are seen face to face | |
| ACCS | All trainees are seen face to face | Because of the structure of ACCS (year 1 = 6 months EM and 6 months AM; year 2 is 12 months Anaes) the trainees cannot use one RC eportfolio as they cover AM, EM and Anaes in their training, therefore: Acute Med themed trainees use paper ARCP forms for years 1 and 2 Emergency Med themed trainees use the Royal College of EM eportfolio for year 1 but are then paper based for year 2 Anaesthetics themed trainees are paper based for year 1 but then can register and use the RC of Anaesthetists eportfolio for year 2. The Educational Supervisor of an ACCS trainee is defined by the theme the trainee is following. |
| Emergency Medicine | All trainees are seen face to face | |
| Obs and Gynae | Years 1, 3 and 6 are paper and years 2, 5 and 7 are face to face | |
| Paediatrics | All trainees are seen face to face | On the RC of Paeds eportfolio there are two possible outcome forms to use - one for completion on day and one for creation prior to the ARCP. If the latter is used it cannot be edited when it has been emailed to the ARCP chair * |
| Radiology | All trainees are seen face to face |
*NOTE: The TIS project will not seek to change the Royal College eportfolio functions however we will endeavour to reduce duplication of input where possible.
ARCP School Managers do not attend the ARCPs. The ARCPs are arranged and coordinated by local office colleagues but do not attend on the day.
Spreadsheets are used to work out who needs ARCPs and when
