RITA forms

There are a number of forms that are used in the RITA process.

The RITA forms are generic documents for all specialties as set out in the Department of Health's A Guide to Specialist Registrar Training.

Instructions for completion are on the forms themselves. Completed originals of these forms will be held by the Postgraduate Dean along with the forms for all the other specialties. Copies are required by the FPH Education and Training department as part of the evidence required to recommend the award of the CCT on completion of training. Note: some deaneries have produced their own versions of these forms. Descriptions of each form are as follows:

Forms A & B - Core information

Forms A and B are records of core information about the trainee.

Form A is completed when the trainee joins the training programme and must be forwarded to the FPH Education and Training department.
Form B is used when any item of information provided within Form A is changed in the central records (e.g. change of address, change of provisional CCT date).

Forms C – F - Records of assessment and subsequent decisions

Forms C to F are records of assessment and subsequent decisions (but the forms are not themselves the means of assessment).

RITA Form C states that progress since the last annual assessment was satisfactory.

RITA form D indicates the need for targeted training with clearly identified objectives.

RITA form E requires the trainee to repeat a period of training and extends the time to CCT. It identifies the need for intensified supervision or the need to repeat experience.

If a Form D and/or E is issued it must be followed by a Form C before a Form G can be issued.

RITA Form F is used to replace Form C when out-of-programme experience is being assessed as satisfactory.

Form G - Completion of training

Form G is a statement that the local specialty training committee advises that training has been satisfactorily completed and the trainee should be recommended for the award of the CCT. The attached Form 3 is a Faculty of Public Health checklist for those who have completed training.

Additional documents for RITA

There are additional documents which have been developed to aid the feedback process of RITA.
