            •       Formative assessment of WBAs

            •       Assessment meetings with trainees

            •       Support of trainees in difficulty



By attending the course delegates will take part in multiple intensively-facilitated small-group practical sessions during which they will fine-tune their skills to apply these tools.  They will practice how best to:

            •       use objective setting to stimulate and direct learning

            •       motivate trainees through feedback

            •       improve learning from formative assessment (eg: WBAs)

            •       make accurate summative assessments for supervisor reports

            •       develop action plans through which to monitor progress

            •       guide personal and professional development

            •       talk to trainees about their shortcomings
