    • There are three options in the trainer menu:

  • How does a supervisor see the doctors they're supervising?
      1. Trainer menu > Supervising
      2. 'Previous', 'Current' and 'Future' supervised foundation doctors/NTGs will appear in three tabs.

      These groups are calculated using a FD's/NTG's active rotation. This means that supervised FDs/NTGs will not move from 'Current' to 'Previous' the day after the end of the supervised placement.

      You can

      - See a FD's/NTG's portfolio by selecting the 'Open portfolio' link

      - Create new forms by selecting one of the quick access links in the grey box on the right

  • What is the trainer ‘Activity Summary’?

    • Users with a "trainer" permission on Horus can view a list of forms they have completed (that is, signed for foundation doctors/NTGs).

      1. Trainer menu > Activity Summary

      2. Select 'Advanced filters' to see all the below filters.

      - Dates from/to forms were completed
      - GMC Number
      - First name
      - Last name
      - Email address
      - Portfolio item type (that is, form name - see a list on the Blank Forms page)

      3. Select 'Filter' to search.

      You can view 10, 25 or 50 records at a time.

      You can view the completed form directly from this page by selecting 'Open' next to the relevant form.

      You can take a screenshot of this page or copy it and paste it into another document (word processor, spreadsheet etc) if required.
