  9. Minimum number of WBAs per year of training ST1-3 Level one ST4-5 Level two ST6-8 Level three

  10. DOPs – listed for each level of training

  11. Who can I choose as an assessor?  • MiniCEX - an experienced higher level trainee or consultant. Not ST4 for ST3 trainee • CbD -consultant • DOPS - senior nurse, experienced higher level trainee or consultant • ePaedMSF (formerly eSPRAT) - a variety of assessors; senior nurse, experienced higher level trainee, consultant, junior nurse, junior trainee, trainee of equivalent training level, administrative staff

  12. MSF (360 degree assessment) • The RCPCH Assessment Strategy requires one satisfactory ePaedMSF per training year • Ensure you do self rating on e SPRAT • Deanery policy is 1 MSF per 6 months - so 1 TAB as well – 12 raters to include Consultants, nursing staff, peers, junior colleagues, wardclerks/secretaries • Educational Supervisor will make feedback available to you

  13. E Portfolio • Complete the curriculum . Must achieve • level 1 competencies in ST1-3 • level 2 in ST4-5 • level 3 in ST6-8 • Skills log • Developmental and skills logs • PDP • Remember to share what you have put in otherwise we will not be able to access it for your ARCP

  14. Curriculum • Fill in the generic and specialty curriculum for the appropriate level of training • Link to evidence – not enough just to rate yourself as competent

  16. Skills log • Airways and respiratory • Circulation • Diagnostic procedures • Neonatal procedures • Subspecialty procedures

  17. Skills log • A DOPS means you can do a procedure on one day in one child • Skills log needs to show you are competent – so collect several venepunctures in a range of children, several intubations etc

  18. PDP • Remember to keep up to date • Each objective needs a new line – do not put all together

  19. ARCP process • Not an assessment of the trainee but of the documentation and submitted evidence presented by the trainee • Trainees do not attend the panel unless an unsatisfactory outcome is anticipated • If unsatisfactory outcome, all trainees are invited to attend a subsequent face to face meeting
