The Psychiatric Supervisor Report is a multi-user form completed by both the trainee and either an educational or clinical supervisor. It is typically submitted at the end of a placement and has a number of sections which can take time to complete.
With forms of this length & complexity, it's all too easy to find yourself in a situation where your session on Portfolio Online has timed out due to inactivity and the form you have been working so hard on hasn't been saved.
The Portfolio Online development group got together to tackle this problem and the Psychiatric Supervisor Report now has a brand new button at the end of each section for trainees and their supervisors to 'save progress'.
Our office lines will be closed from 5pm Thursday 18 April 2019 and will re-open at 9am on Tuesday 23rd April 2019.
If you have an urgent query, please email us on support@portfolioonline.co.uk and we will endeavour to respond as soon as possible.

Those who already have an online CESR portfolio won't be affected and can continue to use Portfolio Online as before. More information about CESR can be found on the CESR page of the Royal College of Psychiatrists' website.
If you've noticed this little icon next to some of the fields in an online document recently, it's new! The clipboard icon next to a field in the online portfolio is an indicator that the field, when completed or edited, will update other areas of a trainee's portfolio. In this way, personal details & important numbers in a trainee's portfolio are syncronised throughout Portfolio Online.
