Personal Activity and Personal Reflection for LLP users

Personal Activities

These are forms on the Lifelong Learning platform that enable evidence of training and progression to be added to the LLP so that they can be reviewed by supervisors and incorporated into decisions made about an anaesthetists training progression, eg ESSRs. 

The personal activity form allows evidence to be uploaded and linked to the key capabilities in the curriculum, in the same was as an Supervised Learning Event; personal activity forms on the LLP do not require approval from an assessor. 

The personal activity forms can be used to capture learning occurring from activities such as attending teaching sessions, educational meetings, or even reading journal articles. 

In a Personal Activity, the Activity Type dropdown correlates to other forms, such as the ESSR  and IAC. Please select the most appropriate category to ensure they pull through correctly.

Personal Reflections

These are forms on the LLP to enable anaesthetists in training to record reflections on their training. 

Reflections can be used to record learning from clinical experience that has not formed part of a supervised learning event. 

Reflecting on clinical practice is not only important for individual wellbeing and professional development, but it is also valuable in helping improve the quality of care for patients. Regardless of the stage of training, reflective learning is a cornerstone of good medical practice. 

Personal reflections should be attached to a Personal Activity, which then pulls into the ESSR. The steps to do this will be to create a personal activity and then reflect on the activity.
