GMC Revalidation definition
The GMC defines revalidation as;
“Our new way of regulating licenced Doctors that will give extra confidence to patients that their Doctors are up to
date and fit to practice”
Revalidation start date
The start date for national revalidation was; 3rd December 2012.
RO’s (Responsible Officers) were revalidated first,
this will have taken place between the 3rd December 2012 and the 31st March
2013.
Revalidation domains for Doctors
• Knowledge, Skills and Performance.
• Safety and Quality.
• Communication, partnership and team work.
• Maintaining Trust.
Trainee Revalidation is different….
Why is Trainee Revalidation Different?
There is already a robust ARCP process in place.
Is additional evidence required?
• Trainees gather NO additional evidence.
• Trainees must continue to collect evidence, as is usual practice, for their ARCP portfolio.
• Requirement is to demonstrate competencies required by Curriculum (currently).
How does the Revalidation process work for trainees?
There are two processes to consider:
1. Educational Process 2. Revalidation Process
These processes run in parallel and compliment each other.
ARCP Panel and Chair role in process
Process 1 - the Educational process:
The Chair and Panel review the ARCP evidence and award an outcome – as is current practice.
ARCP Panel and Chair in process
Process 2 - the Revalidation process:
Once the ARCP Chair and Panel have awarded an outcome, the Chair will then review the clinical governance information (3 key documents) prior to completing the Enhanced ARCP Outcome Form. The Chair and Panel then complete 2 additional questions, explained in more detail shortly.
Process 2 – Revalidation: documentationThe documentation is completed as follows: • Exit Report – For completion by the LEP.
• Enhanced Form R - For completion by the trainee.
• The Educational Supervisor Annual ARCP Report (2 additional questions) - For completion by the Educational/Clinical Supervisor.
• Enhanced Outcome Form (2 additional questions) – For completion by the ARCP Panel Chair.
These documents are subject to change as the process progresses however, they are currently active
1. Exit Report - LEP
• This documentation is completed by the LEP (Local Education Provider).
• It is then submitted to the PSU at the end of the each rotation. The PSU then support this process.

1. Exit Report - LEP
The Exit Report consists of two parts:
1. The Collective Exit Report - Completed bi-annually or when the trainee leaves the LEP.
2. The Exception Exit Report - This is a more detailed report which is only completed if the trainee has been involved in an investigation (closed or open) by the LEP.
2. Enhanced Form R - TraineeThis is a self declaration covering;
• Full scope of practice.
• Involvements in any SUIs/Significant events (closed or still under investigation).
• Compliments and complaints.
• Probity.
• Health.
2. Enhanced Form R –
TraineeThe trainees complete a Form R when they register with the Deanery, and again if their details change.
As of Dec 3rd 2012 all trainees must complete the Enhanced Form R annually
• The form will be sent to the trainee at least 6 weeks prior to the ARCP panel.
• It must be returned by the trainee to their SPC at least 2 weeks prior to the ARCP.
2. Enhanced Form R - Trainee• Enhanced Form R includes Scope of Practice.
• This section enables you to list all locum and non-NHS work as a doctor (even if with your current employer) completed over the past year.
Self Declaration to be completed by TraineeScope of Practice –
Since your last ARCP or if no ARCP since GMC full registration, please list, any past and present employers/HTO placements/ time out of programme/ advisory/ voluntary roles or any other activity undertaken in your capacity as a registered medical practitioner including all locum and non NHS work even if these are with current employer/HTO. (Please add more rows if required).

Significant Events - The GMC state that a significant event (also known as an untoward or critical incident) is any unintended or unexpected event, which could or did lead to harm of one or more patients. This includes incidents which did not cause harm but could have done, or where the event should have been prevented. All doctors as part of revalidation are required to record and reflect on Significant events in their work with the focus on what you have learnt as a result of the event/s.
Please note that you do not need to list any significant events that were not investigated.
3. The Educational Supervisor Annual ARCP Report• The Educational Supervisor annual ARCP report is an
important part of both the ARCP and the Revalidation process.
• It is completed by the Educational Supervisor prior to a trainees ARCP panel.
• Depending upon the specialty, some Clinical Supervisors may be responsible for completing this report.
3. The Educational Supervisor Annual ARCP ReportA meeting is held to complete this report with the Educational Supervisor and the trainee.
The aims of this meeting are;
• To review the portfolio of evidence.
• Generate discussion e.g. Successes; SUI; Incidents; Concerns; Reflection (declared on the Enhanced Form R).
• Facilitate the joint completion of the report.
The aims of the Annual Report are to;
• Summarise and document any discussions.• Signpost the evidence in the ARCP portfolio.• Document any strengths, concerns including;
Successes; SUIS; Incidents; concerns. • Review reflection on the above.• Recommend areas for development.
3. The Educational Supervisor Annual ARCP Report
There are 2 additional questions in the Educational Supervisor Annual ARCP Report:
• Most development areas will be picked up in the current Educational process.
• The trigger point in answering ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to the question below is ‘if the trainee has been involved in a Trust level investigation’.
3. The Educational Supervisor Annual ARCP Report
Details of concerns/investigations:

• For trainees in Locum Appointment for Service (LAS) posts the process will begin in FY1.
• Non UK trainees may enter the programme later so their process will begin: Once they are fully registered.
What are the timescales?
From the 1st of April 2013 trainees will
