General description only
We could not verify current FourteenFish screens. The workflow below is described in general terms and labels may differ in your version. For exact steps, search the FourteenFish help centre for the RCGP Trainee Portfolio.
The numbers by year
| Requirement | ST1 | ST2 | ST3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clinical case reviews (CCRs) | 36 per year 18 per review | 36 per year 18 per review | 36 per year 18 per review |
| Personal Development Plan (PDP) | at least 1 new objective per review | at least 1 new objective per review | at least 1 new objective per review |
Full time, per training year unless stated. Less than full time: per-year totals stay the same and each 6-month review needs a pro rata share; 6-monthly ESRs and 12-monthly certificates are not pro rata. Check with your deanery and educational supervisor.
Notes on these numbers
- Clinical case reviews (CCRs), LTFT: Pro rata: e.g. 60% = 36 per training year spread over 20 months, about 11 per 6-month review.
- Personal Development Plan (PDP), LTFT: Same.
Where things usually go
| Task | In general |
|---|---|
| Add a CCR | Create a new learning log entry and choose the clinical case review type. Complete the reflective headings, select capabilities with a justification, select clinical experience groups, then save. |
| Add an LEA or SEA | A new learning log entry of the event analysis type; choose LEA or SEA by the GMC harm threshold. |
| QIA, leadership, feedback reflection | A new learning log entry of the matching type. |
| Courses, OOH sessions, certificates | Supporting documentation (or the compliance area your deanery uses): attach the file, give it a dated title and add a note of learning. |
| Request a COT, CAT, mini-CEX or CEPS | From the assessments area, choose the tool and send a request or ticket to the assessor by email (useful for hospital assessors without an account), or the assessor completes it from their own login. |
| MSF, leadership MSF, PSQ | From the surveys area, start the survey for the correct period; invite colleagues by email (MSF) or arrange paper forms with reception (PSQ). Your ES releases results. |
| PDP | Add an objective with a target date and planned evidence; mark it complete with a link to evidence. A learning need can often be sent to the PDP from a log entry. |
| ESR preparation | Complete the self-rating for each capability with evidence before the meeting; review and sign afterwards. |
| Check coverage | Use the portfolio's capability and clinical experience group summaries to see coverage by review period. |
| Prescribing assessment | Upload the RCGP spreadsheet and your reflection form as directed; your trainer completes their form. |
How our tools fit in
- The Log Writer produces plain text in portfolio order with a Copy button per section, because the portfolio has separate boxes.
- The PDP Builder and ESR helper copy text formatted for the matching fields.
- Nothing in our tools connects to FourteenFish: you copy and paste.
