Abstract:Key content: Appraisal is a formative and developmental process; annual appraisals are the cornerstones of revalidation. Supporting information for an appraisal should cover the whole scope of work of an obstetrician and gynaecologist, including any educational, managerial or academic work over a 5-year revalidation cycle. The quality of supporting information, including reflection, is more important than the quantity. Supporting information for an appraisal can be found in many day-to-day clinical activities. Learning objectives: To be familiar with the guiding principles of appraisal and revalidation. To appreciate how to provide supporting information that satisfies appraisal and revalidation requirements. To know how to prepare efficiently and effectively for appraisal and revalidation.Copyright © 2018 Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists
