ARCP and PYA

ARCP (Annual Review of Competence Progression) and PYA (Penultimate Year Assessment) are the checkpoints at which training progression and remaining training needs are assessed. Documentation is required by email and on the ePortfolio for these meetings. More information on the requirements is on the deanery website, links below.

PYA

There is no PYA or associated documentation now as Wessex Deanery and most Deaneries have removed the term PYA or any assessment forms for ST7. The penultimate ST6 ARCP will list any additional requirements above the standard ST7 requirements.
