In keeping with the GMC Recognition of Trainers policy, all "named-trainer" roles require formal recognition.
Initial recognition is a process managed by the DMEs (Directors of Medical Education) and EOs (Educational Organisations). When recognised, all trainers are asked to complete a ROT form on SOAR as part of their annual appraisal.
As part of the quality assurance of your trainer roles, your DME and/or EO will review (as appropriate) the ROT forms from the past few years and should further information or clarity is required, they will reach out to you then.
The document below acts as a checklist to aid your completion of ROT form on SOAR.
For detailed guidance around the RoT processes itself, please visit the Scottish Deanery website.
The following pages provide guidance around the Recognition of Trainer process on SOAR.
