In-Training Evaluation Report

The ITER is an assessment tool that facilitates the ongoing education of trainees. The ITER can be used to discuss training rotations in detail and raise issues experienced and whether these were rectified. The ITER also offers the opportunity for goal setting for trainees and a review of any relevant matters related to previous terms.

Trainees are required to submit regular in-Training Evaluation Reports (ITER) to have training time considered for accreditation. This can be completed via the Education Tab in the Members Portal.
 
The ITER covers seven domains of intensive care practice:

  • Medical (clinical) expert
  • Communicator
  • Collaborator
  • Manager
  • Health advocate
  • Scholar
  • Professional

For the training term to be accredited, the trainee must:

  • Not be marked as “does not demonstrate basic safe practice/performance” for any assessment criteria
  • Be at adequate/at expected, good or excellent level relative to stage of training
  • Make sufficient progress during the training term
  • Have the training term recommended as accredited for training by their SoT

During the portal outage, if you need to complete an ITER you can find each of the PDF versions listed below. Once the ITER is complete, supervisors (SOTs) can send it to [email protected] for processing.

  • Approval of Training
  • Completing the ITER
  • Final in-training Evaluation Report
  • Resources
  • FAQs

For training time to be recognised, all trainees are required to submit an Approval of Vocational Training (AVT) form prior to commencement of the term. The College uses this AVT form to determine whether certain training positions are appropriate for accreditation.

Trainees must complete an application for approval of their proposed training post for assessment by the Censor within 30 days of commencing the post, but preferably prior to their commencement date.

The AVT must be submitted online in via the Members Portal before a signed copy is forwarded to the College.

Who can complete an In-Training Evaluation Report (ITER) for Intensive Care Training?

The ITER for Intensive Care Training is to be completed by the designated Supervisor for that unit only. 
The ITER can be discussed in conjunction with the Unit Director and other Consultants; however, final completion of the ITER must be by the designated Supervisor. 

My non-intensive care supervisor has misplaced their login information. What should I do?

Email assessments to have login details re-sent. 

Who has access to a trainee’s ITER records?

Only the Supervisor nominated in the AVT form has access to your ITER records. 
The Supervisor will have access to the record for the duration of the term plus one month after the end date of term. 
If the AVT form has not been submitted and/or has an outstanding invoice for the training, the ITER will not appear. 

What if the Supervisor of the term changes?

The College will require written confirmation from the current Supervisor with details about the change. 
Once the records have been updated by the College, only the new Supervisor will have access to the ITER record(s). 

Can a Supervisor view the trainee’s self-assessment before submitting their ITER?

Yes. The trainee’s self-assessment will be available once the Supervisor’s assessment has been finalised and the Proceed button has been clicked. 

Can an ITER be saved to a computer/device (e.g. Desktop or USB)?

No. Currently there is no functionality which allows an ITER to be saved to a computer / device. 

What devices can be used to complete the ITER?

Users can access the ITER using the following devices: 

  • Desktop computers 
  • Laptops 
  • Tablet devices 

The ITER forms will also work on smartphones, but this is not recommended as viewing of content on a smartphone may not be optimal.
