e-Portfolio

The College is aware of bugs in the new e-Portfolio and great efforts are being made to resolve the glitches. The College reassured us that no trainee will be disadvantaged. The College is aware that trainees will be catching up with multiple assessments and to this end they will not be penalised for “bunching”. MSF is particularly problematic but great efforts are being made to repair it. Please always search for your required assessor using their surname at first to prevent duplicate accounts being created with alternative email addresses.

In comparison to the previous e-Portfolio the WpBAs are driven by the primary learning outcome.  Once the WpBA is selected, this will open functionality around which the association to said learning outcome may be completed.

This was a Surgical Simulation Day (organised by Mr Patrick Watts - Training Programme Director) during 145pm to 5pm.
