ARCP-related guidance on completion of ESR and TO2

Dear Trainees,

In preparation for the approaching ARCP diet, please be mindful that our helpdesk team will be busier than usual in supporting you. Wherever possible, please refer to the online support materials and FAQ guidance.

The most useful resource to reference is the Trainee User Guide, which contains instructions for many key ePortfolio functions.

For online materials relating to the annual Educational Supervisor Report (ESR), please visit our website here. A digital guide for completing the ESR is also available to download here.

Please ensure that your CiP Assessments and TO2s have been completed before you generate your ESR, as this will allow them to populate automatically when you create the report.

If you encounter issues with populating WPBAs on your ESR then please check to ensure that:

• The evidence is recorded or took place after the Date of Last ARCP
• The evidence is recorded at the correct grade for the ESR
• The evidence is marked as Complete 
• The evidence lists the correct Core Curriculum procedure name, in order to populate Section 2 CiPs & Procedure Summary

One you have finished collecting TO1 responses through your Team Observation assessment, you will need to close the assessment by sending the TO2 request. To do this, you will need to scroll to the bottom of the Self TO1 and click the button to “Release TO2”. This will ensure that the TO2 request is generated for your Educational Supervisor to complete.

The RCOG Website includes further Resources and Support Materials for Trainees. In addition, you can access ePortfolio video guides through the RCOG Learning resource.

Should you require further technical support or if you cannot find the answers through the online guidance, please raise a ticket with the ePortfolio Helpdesk, by emailing ePortfolio@rcog.org.uk. Our team will respond to your enquiry within 3 business days.

All the best with your ARCP!
