Get on to
the eportfolio
New registrars
(ST1s) need to complete form R and return it to
the Deanery. They also need to register with the
RCGP. Until they have done that, they won't be
able to access the eportfolio.
If you continue to have problems, please contact your local Training Programme Director (TPD, formerly known as Course Organiser) in the first instance, He/she should be able to sort it out.
ARCP panels
The main panel is
held in June each year as, for most, the year
end is in August. For registrars who are out of
phase there are panels held every two months,
Aug, Oct, Dec, Feb & Apr, in different parts of
the region. The relevant panel for you will be
the one that is within eight weeks of your year
end. You will receive notification via the
eportfolio but you should contact your Area
Programme Director, Dr Vic Schrieber (you
can via this website) to ensure that you are
listed. Remember that your progress through
training depends on the ARCP panel.
This year, the main ARCP panel will be held on 10 June. All trainees whose year end is August should ensure that they have had the educational supervision meeting by 17 May. The ARCP panel process ensures careful review of all eportfolios to check that all tasks have been achieved and that entries are suitably thorough and reflective.
Most trainees will be judged to be making satisfactory progress or have completed training successfully. Information should be available on the eportfolio shortly afterwards. Those with unsatisfactory outcomes will be notified by Tuesday 15 June and may be required to attend for an interview on Thursday 24 June.
New R7 form
There is a
new R7 form that is shorter and
doesn’t need a signature from your Programme
Director (Course Organiser). The Deanery will no
longer accept the old style R7 form, so please use
the new one. It is available from this website, your
VTS website or from the Manager at your Education
Centre. It needs to be completed by the trainee,
countersigned by the trainer and sent, as it says on
the form, to Vic Schrieber, Area Programme
Director
Remember, if you don’t send in the form in good
time, you won’t get paid. |
