Add an ARCP Reviewer to a School or Organisation

An Annual Review of Competence Progression (ARCP) Reviewer can be only be added to FOM PortfolioBuilder by one of the ARCP provider's deanery administrators or the organisation's Head of School.

Step 1: Log in to your account on FOM PortfolioBuilder.

Step 2: Go to the page for your ARCP provider (NHS Education for Scotland, National School of Occupational Health, Defence Deanery or NIMDTA).

Step 3: Click on the 'ARCP Reviewers' tab.

Step 4: Type in the email address of the reviewer.

If you type in a recognised email address, FOM PortfolioBuilder will automatically fill in the name of the reviewer, if not, enter it manually.

NOTE: It is important that ARCP administrators check with reviewers to see if they are already registered with the system, and if so, what their primary email address is. The primary email address is the email address used to log in to the system and is the one an administrator should use to register reviewers. This ensures no duplicate accounts are created.

Step 5: Click on 'Nominate'.

If the ARCP Reviewer does not already have an account on FOM PortfolioBuilder you will need to send them an email. Open the 'management requests pending' box & click on the 'send' button.

All ARCP Reviewers for an organisation have access to a trainee's portfolio two weeks up to and including the trainee's ARCP review date.

If a reviewer is no longer a reviewer for an organisation, deanery administrators or Heads of School can remove them. It is the organisation's responsibility to make sure that the list of reviewers is kept up-to-date. Remove an ARCP Reviewer from your School/Organisation. 

Once an ARCP reviewer has been added to a school or organisation, deanery administrators may wish to assign an ARCP reviewer to an ARCP panel or schedule an ARCP for a trainee.
