Time forgets no-one

 

 

As a Trainer and an Educational Supervisor you often feel that time is against you, as another deadline approaches - avoid these pressures by using are tried and tested downloads.

Here are some of the essential downloads for...

One of the changes which needs highlighting is the change to name of the types of summative (May/Nov) reviews

 

Instead of the 'Type of Review' within the ePortfolio having set names based on months into training, the reviews will be named with the ST year, followed by a number indicating which review this was for the trainee.

 

 

Old System	New System
6 Month	ST1-1
12 Month	ST1-2
18 Month	ST2-1
24 Month	ST2-2
30 Month	ST3-1
Final Review	ST3-2

 

However you are not restricted to only 2 reviews in an ST year. You can add as many as necessary. Each time a new review is created for an ST year another review number is added.

 

For example a Trainee fails the CSA and needs another 6 months training in ST3. The additional ST3 review can be created as ST3-3

 

This also has a benefit for part-time trainees. They will use the same review structures. Instead of having to select a specific part time review, additional reviews for the ST year are created.
