Kia ora koutou,

It is my pleasure to produce this month’s DCT newsletter.

Core Skills list completion dates

Reminder for trainees on the pre‑2025 training programme: 
  • If you had not completed the 38 pre‑2025 Core Skills and uploaded them to UCCIS 31 January 2025, you must also complete two additional skills: Relocation of Pulled Elbow / Radial Head Subluxation and Doppler Ultrasound for Foetal Heartbeat.
TP25 registrars – (those who are on the new training programme which commenced in 2025)
  • There are a total of 42 core skills to be completed, including Facial Nerve Blocks and TMJ Relocation, those mentioned above, and the original 38 corse skills.

Workplace-Based Assessments: Sign-off and TalentLMS course

  • For those of you who are on the 2025 training programme a reminder to please notify the TPC (Alex) when you have completed any of the Workplace-based Assessments.
  • You can load the completed forms to UCCIS. If it is a DOPS please load both the DOPS form and the Core Skills List itself.
  • Please read the updated TalentLMS course: Workplace-based Assessments and be aware of who can be an assessor.
Please note: DOPS must be observed and cannot be completed at SDAW.

Workplace and Supervisors on UCCIS

Multiple workplaces
  • To claim clinical hours that count towards the training programme, you must enter an Urgent Care Workplace and it must be aoproved for training.
  • If you have more than workplace, please add all of your workplaces. This includes listing all workplaces that fall under a single company but have multiple locations (i.e. Tāmaki Health).
  • You should also set a primary workplace using the star icon (highlighted in green).
Supervisors
  • You must have a supervisor set up in UCCIS. If you do not, please contact tpc@rnzcuc.org.nz
  • All supervisors must be approved supervisors. If they are not approved, then they will not appear as on UCCIS your supervisor.
