Best practice demonstrations of workplace-based assessment
The four videos below have been developed to demonstrate best practice in workplace-based assessment. Although every trainer will communicate with a trainee differently and have their own way of conducting a workplace-based assessment in different situations, it is hoped that these videos give a useful insight in to what the College Committees believe is good practice and a constructive educational event.
If you have any further questions or comments, whether you are a trainee, trainer of non-clinician requiring further information about training and assessment in obtsetrics and gynaecology, please email education@rcog.org.uk.
