E-portfolio - why?
• What is the value of an e-portfolio?– This is your portfolio– Peer and supervisor feedback– Progress against the curriculum– Personal library– Think about what you need, reflect and PDP
• This is how an external assessor (and potentially a lawyer) views a trainee
“little and often”
HEKSS process
• Interim review – 6 months, face to face to discuss training and progress.
• ARCP – July, virtual process. Face to face only if concerns.
• Final virtual review August
Outcome 1 = Perfect e-portfolio
How to achieve an ARCP outcome 1
• Ensure you have completed the ARCP decision aid requirements for your training year
• Complete at least the minimum number of WBAs, with different assessors, the majority should be consultants
• Up to date ES report• 4 – 6 MCRs• Evidence of progress against the curriculum
– At least 3 pieces of evidence • Up to date log book in a well organised personal library• Remember the assessment is of you via your e-portfolio
How to fail your ARCP
Don’t engage in the process
Get your assessments at the last minute
Get curriculum sign off with insufficient evidence
Trainee A
• Trainee A is brilliant• He arrives for his ARCP
with a hand full of WBAs, no curriculum sign off, no ES report
• What outcome?
Trainee A
• He does not complete the outstanding assessments
• The 6 months later he attends ARCP with no ES report or MCR & no
evidence of curriculum progress• Outcome?
Trainee B• Maintains an exemplary e-
portfolio• Struggles with some of the
practical procedures he is learning despite some focused training. Whilst he has multiple DOPs he does not consistently achieve the level required
• What outcome?
Trainee C
• Presents an incomplete e-portfolio
• He is missing a few WBAs and has limited linking the curriculum
• ES report and MCR suggest he is an able trainee
• What outcome?
Summary
• This is your e-portfolio and is a reflection of you.• If you are having difficulties contact the HEKSS
team and TPD.• You cannot pass a ARCP without a perfect e-
portfolio.• A PYA assessor and ARCP panel will only
recommend a CCT if you have all the evidence that you have completed the curriculum.
