What is an ARCP?
You will receive an ARCP (Annual Review of Competence Progression) at least on an annual basis. It is a process which enables you and the deanery to record that you are gaining all competencies required by your training programme at an appropriate rate and through appropriate experience. It is not in itself a means or tool of assessment.
Trainees view of an ARCP.
Educators view of an ARCP.
The main Scotland Deanery ARCP pages can be found here.
The Deanery will notify you of the dates of your ARCP these have been planned 12 months in advance and can be accessed by clicking on the tab below. It has been agreed that GPST are required to submit their evidence at least two weeks before the date of the ARCP. The Deanery expects a level of professionalism from all trainees and educational supervisors in this respect and requires trainees to work towards and meet this submission date. Failure to do so will result in the issue of an outcome 5, unless exceptional circumstances apply.
You will be notified of your ARCP by email, 8 weeks before the date of the ARCP review.
