Non-urgent advice: <\/span>An intro to Work-Place Based Assessment (WPBA)<\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/span><\/div>

Non-urgent advice: <\/span>How does it all work together?<\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/span><\/div>

WPBA evaluates the trainee’s progress in areas of professional practice best tested in the workplace and:\u00a0
– looks at the trainee’s performance in their day to day practice to provide evidence for learning and reflection based on real experiences
– supports and drives learning in important areas of capability with an underlying theme of patient safety
– provides constructive feedback on areas of strength and developmental needs, identifying trainees who may be in difficulty and need more help
– evaluates aspects of professional behaviour that are difficult to assess in the Applied Knowledge Test and Clinical Skills Assessment
– determines fitness to progress towards completion of training.<\/p>

Evidence of WPBA, as approved by the GMC, includes the completion of specific assessments and reports, the documentation of naturally occurring evidence as well as certain mandatory requirements such as Child safeguarding and Basic Life Support. More information on the requirements for WPBA can be found here<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Non-urgent advice: <\/span>What if I am LTFT?<\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/span><\/div>

For trainees who are less than full time the same number of assessments need to be completed per \u2018training year\u2019 (this will be longer than a calendar year). For example a trainee on a 50% less than full time rotation will take 2 years to complete a \u2018training year\u2019<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Non-urgent advice: <\/span>I have completed my MSF and PSQ but I cannot see the results!<\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/span><\/div>

You will be emailed once you have the minimum numbers needed to close the survey. Your Educational Supervisor will have to release the results to you before it can become available for you to view.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"parent":1313,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-1255","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nWPBA -
