RCOphth: How to create a new Review Period

Our advice to all RCOphth users is that only one Review Period exists on a user's Training Map at any given time and that a new Review Period is not created until after the ESR sign off has been completed in the open one.

Once the ESR has been signed off, the Supervisor will be prompted to create a new Review Period for the Trainee and this can be done by clicking on Add a review period:

Trainees

If an ESR has recently been signed off and the Educational Supervisor has not created a new Review Period, the Trainee will be able to create themselves a new Review Period in the same way the Supervisor could from the Training Map (as shown above).

College Tutors or Programme Directors

It is currently possible for a College Tutor or a Programme Director to create a review period, but this will not be the norm as Trainees own their own portfolios with the Royal College of Ophthalmologists.
