The CfAP ePortfolio route is designed for experienced practitioners who are already practising at an advanced level but lack formal recognition. It is retrospective — evidencing what you already do, not developing new capabilities.
Process: Expression of interest → learning needs analysis → evidence gathering against four pillars → portfolio submission → digital badge award.
Four pillars: Clinical practice (case studies, competency logs, audits), leadership and management (QI projects, service redesign, leadership roles), education (teaching portfolios, mentoring records, supervision evidence), research (literature reviews, audit, conference participation).
Evidence types: Reflective accounts, case studies, 360-degree feedback, CPD certificates, QI project reports, teaching evaluations, publications/presentations.
Timeline: Typically 6-12 months from expression of interest to badge award.
Eligibility: Experienced practitioners, mostly trained before the 2017 multi-professional framework. Not for those currently in ACP training — they should pursue the accredited MSc route.
iatroX's CPD module supports evidence documentation across professional domains — relevant to clinical practice and education pillars.
