In Obs and Gynae years 1, 3 and 6 are paper and years 2, 5 and 7 are face to face.

GP

For GP assessments only those who have been given an adverse outcome in their assessments are seen face to face. All others are notified via e-portfolio (JW to check this with Gemma).  Trainees on an Outcome 6 are not all seen.

Prior to each review a summary form for each trainee is created with the information from e-portfolio for the panel to review:

There are two forms for screening, the ad hoc one shown directly above is used for the smaller monthly panels.

The portfolio feedback ES report one shown below is used for the Summer ARCPs, it contains similar fields apart from we ask for feedback for the Educational Supervisor. Both forms were created within this team and aren’t used anywhere other than Peninsula

The screen shots below are taken from the Royal College of GPs eportfolio system .
