ePortfolio

As you can tell from the lower-case e in the title of this post, our trainers are not afraid of using 21st century asssessment methods. If you are an ST trainee with a dislike of paper then email Severn Deanery tech whizzkid Matthew Hill (Matthew.Hill@southwest.nhs.uk) with the following information: Name GMC Number Level of Study Email address Hospital/Trust Specialty and he will sort you out with an ePortfolio.
