| CSA
The CSA results were out today. Of twenty ST3 trainees who took it this time, seventeen passed - congratulations. Comiserations to those who didnot, but Richard, Rosemarie and Jaz have a programme to finish polishing the edges so that you will surely pass it next time. This gives us a pass rate of 85% - not bad eh!
AKT
Just to make it clear - we expect trainees to have passed or at least attempted AKT before they start ST3. So - if you are in ST1 or ST2 and have done a GP post you need to be planning to do the AKT in April. If you are in ST2 and doing a GP trainee post at the moment again you need to be planning to do AKT in April.
Local Panel Date - 8th June, 2010.
The local ARCP panel date is 8th June. Most of our trainees are transitioning in August so this means that everything in your ePortfolio needs completing by the end of May - that means CSR, ESR and all your WPBAs. Make a note - LOCAL ARCP PANEL 8th JUNE 2010.
ePortfolio
Just a quick note (or rather a big nag) - MRCGP is a tripartite exam - AKT, CSA and your ePortfolio. You need to have more than sufficient etnries to allow your Educational Supervisor to validate that you have achieved all the competencies. Thin ePortfolios will fail.
