What are the consequences if a trainee is given a fair or poor WBA outcome?
Trainees are encouraged to undertake assessments of their competence well before the target year of achievement published in the curriculum so they can receive valuable feedback about their performance and progress. It is therefore entirely expected for trainees to have a number of poor or fair areas of performance in the relevant workplace based assessment (WBA) forms. Under normal circumstances these weaker areas will be addressed and subsequent assessments will be satisfactory. If a trainee has not received satisfactory assessments in one of the WBA areas identified for achievement by a specified year of training, this must be addressed at the Annual Review of Competence Progression (ARCP) and one of the following outcomes must be agreed: 1. Achieving progress and the development of competencies at the expected rate Unsatisfactory or insufficient evidence – trainee required to meet with the panel: 2. Development of specific competencies required additional training time not required
