Dr Mark O'Brien, ST7 resident has designed a valuable tool for all residents in Anaesthesia to support completion of the RCoA curriculum requirements. The Curriculum on a Page (COAP) is a new electronic tool which is available to any resident who wishes to streamline and organise their approach to the daunting LLP. A short introductory video highlighting the benefits and need for such a tool is included here. The tool is not a mandatory requirement but we are signposting all residents who would like to give it a try. The COAP tool full details and spreadsheet to start using it can be found under the Curriculum tab.
