788 Kaizen Kafe: improving ePortfolio confidence for ST1 paediatric Doctors in training in the West Midlands
2023
Overview
ObjectivesCareer progression for paediatric Postgraduate Doctors in Training (PgDiT) is dependent on the outcome achieved during the Annual Review of Competence Progression (ARCP). The ARCP panel assess the evidence provided in each PgDiT’s Kaizen e-Portolio to determine an ARCP outcome. Thus, it is vitally important that all PgDiT can confidently navigate and effectively utilise the Kaizen e-Portolio. The West Midlands Paediatric Trainees’ Committee have established an e-Portfolio peer-to-peer teaching session entitled ‘Kaizen Kafe’. This initiative aims to support and educate ST1 doctors and increase their confidence in navigating the Kaizen ePortfolio and ARCP process.MethodsA 2-hour training event was delivered to ST1 PgDiT in the West Midlands deanery. Topics covered included basic navigation of the ePortfolio, introduction to the RCPCH Progress curriculum and curriculum tagging, tips to using developmental logs effectively and preparing for ARCP. A pre and post-course online questionnaire was administered to event attendees, evaluating trainee confidence using Likert scales. Open-ended questions sought to identify barriers to using the ePortfolio and to highlight benefits of attending the training event.Results17 pre and post-course questionnaires were completed. 12% of attendees reported feeling confident about using the e-Portfolio prior to the event, with reported barriers including lack of time, high workload and uncertainty of how to navigate the platform. 100% of attendees reported feeling ‘confident’ or ‘very confident’ about using Kaizen following the training session, highlighting that event provided practical insights into using the ePortfolio and useful examples of mapping to the RCPCH curriculum. 12% of attendees reported feeling confident about preparing for ARCP prior to the event, compared to 100% of attendees feeling ‘confident’ or ‘very confident’ following the event. Attendees reported that topics covered were relevant to training and highlighted the benefits of near-peer teaching.ConclusionAttending Kaizen Kafe improved the self-reported confidence of ST1 Paediatric PgDiT with regards to using the e-Portfolio and navigating the ARCP process. Further Kaizen Kafe events could be organised and tailored to specific cohorts, such as International Medical Graduates and PgDiT who have transferred to the deanery. Events such as Kaizen Kafe provide equal opportunity for all PgDiT by ensuring all doctors are universally equipped with the tools to build their e-Portfolio confidence.
