It is essential the Educational Supervisor establishes what undergraduate experience the FD has gained during their training. The baseline Clinical Experience Log in the e-Portfolio together with the DPSU clinical experience document are valuable tools for facilitating discussions about baseline experience.
In addition your FD will complete the self assessment part of the Educational Transitional Document (ETD)
HEIW have put in place a programme of additional study days specifically to address differences in IDG undergraduate training
