Diabetes & Endo ARCP / RITAs May 2008

Dear Colleague,

I have appended:

1. The finalised timetable for the ARCPs. Please make a note of your date and time for assessment and can I ask trainers to make a note of which panel they will be on. Gillian is trying to winkle out of the JRCPTB who our external assessor will be for the PYAs. If needed I may need to juggle the PYAs, but there is slack in the dates.

<<ARCP 2008 timetable.doc>>

 

2. Trainee instructions for the ARCP. Those of you due a PYA note the deadline! Furthermore, Gillian goes on maternity leave in Feb hence we will have another contact for the ARCPs.

3. Supporting documentation for the ARCPs.

Kindest of regards,
Shaz.
