The training review interview is a voluntary discussion between trainees and their clinical and/or research tutor which aims to do the following: –
- Consider the trainees’ development over the final few months of placement
- Gather feedback from trainees to use when considering improvements to the course: the working environment, culture, processes and systems, management and development
- Information gathering – job on qualification, thesis correction status, publication plans etc
- Discuss post qualification life – ideas around CPD, mentoring, possible contributions to clinical psychology training post-qualification etc
An opportunity for the training review interview should be offered as near to the end of completion of training as possible. Notes can be taken by the tutor(s) with regards to trainee feedback about the course (point 2) and post qualification plans (point 3) with the trainee’s consent. Any written notes that the trainee consents to may be used anonymously on the course website.
