 Attendance at local teaching

Please note that as well as any teaching you have delivered, you should also record your attendance at local teaching sessions within your Trust and be able to present a succinct list of these to the panel at your ARCP in September. You can do this on your ePortfolio.

 If teaching is failing to occur, or is of inappropriate quality, trainees should approach their local College Tutor and subsequently one of the Training Programme Directors, failing unsuccessful local resolution.
