The ARCP process is compulsory for all Specialist Trainees in a training programme. ARCPs will take place on a quarterly basis and you will be invited to the panel which is most appropriate timewise based upon your training calculator.  For further information on the ARCP process please read the appropriate section in the Gold Guide 10th Edition.

Your SPC Adam Goddard will contact you in advance with the confirmed dates for submission of evidence, when it will be reviewed and if you require a feedback meeting with your Training Programme Director (TPD).

Please also take a look at this video which has been produced by our leadership fellows relating to revalidation and scope of practice - https://youtu.be/lZB3_FuT1LU
