Portfolio of pap

After the European time directive came into force, 100-hour shifts have been partially replaced with silly online quizzes and fatuous portfolios that need to be done in your own time. There are useful bits in the e-learning for healthcare site, but it is so padded out with this sort of pap that my brain becomes so enraged to properly take it in. You could strip out most of the material and lose nothing of value.

Junior doctors want a decent education. We do not want our time wasted with box-ticking work. It feels as though whoever is in control of junior doctors’ training has too little regard for our time and is all too willing to throw another acronymed assessment onto the pile.

We must demand a more active role in designing our curriculum. We need to scrap the quantity and focus on the quality. Those who set the standards must be made to justify every minute of training they ask from us. Box ticking does not help anyone.
