RCOphth: How to make a copy of an Educational Assessment

As a RCOphth trainee, you will be expected to recreate EPAs and GSATs per Level until you get the full sign-off in each one.

To streamline the process of ongoing requests for EPAs and GSATS in a training year, there is a Make a copy button on completed assessments that allows you to create a new version of the previous assessment, thereby reducing the need to duplicate work:

NB - It is important to ensure that all linked evidence from Learning Logs and other assessments is reviewed by your Educational Supervisor and has the correct EPA/GSAT Learning Outcome tags assigned to it before creating the new assessment copy. The additional evidence cannot be reviewed if this is not completed before the assessment

You can find the existing assessment by following our guidance in our help article here

Create a copied assessment request:

• Check the date of the previous assessment is the most recent version.

• Select Make copy from the page menu.
• Select the Assessor to invite from your Contacts list or add a new Assessor's details.
• Edit the date, Trainee self-assessment and any information that has changed since the last assessment. 
• When complete, select to Invite your Assessor

Completing the assessment details:

• The assessment will need to be completed in full by your Assessor as normal and once they submit it, the copied assessment will be visible in the current Review Period to the ARCP once signed off by assessing supervisor.
