The long awaited Parapraxis is now released for your viewing pleasure. This is an accumulation of work by numerous VAPT members present and old, we hope you enjoy this!
p.s. The link to Parapraxis can be found within this post or on the publications section.
The Unofficial Guide to Assessments was published in November 2017 as a collaboration between VAPT, NAPT, QPTA and friends.
The new 2012 CBFP can feel daunting, as there are many parts to complete. There are 5 centrally administered summative assessments (which take approximately 6-24 months to complete), in addition to the EPAs and other requirements (e.g. psychotherapy, leadership and management). There are other components within training that are not discussed in this document, such as the formal education course and advanced certificate requirements. Of course, this is set within a broader context of our daily jobs, on call shifts and our personal daily lives – the proverbial work-work-life balance.
As the 2012 CBFP is new, with the first group of trainees about to transition to Fellowship, this guide aims to provide guidance to the broader trainee group, including SIMGs and transitioned trainees.
Contents include: Tips for Looking After Yourself; Formative Assessments, Timing, and General Considerations; Scholarly Project; Psychotherapy Written Case; Exams: MCQ, Essay-Style Exam and OSCE.
