Explanatory Notes
This is an important document. The logbook is an integral part of basic training
and it will provide a record of your experience and your academic and educational
activities. It will be part of your assessment as you move through basic training
and it will be required for the final year of residency and Board examination.
This logbook is intended to be a record of all procedures you perform or
participate in as part of your training.
Training Posts Held
On this page you are required to list, in chronological order, the posts which you
have held during residency program at the completion of each post, the trainer or
consultant to whom you have been attached must sign to indicate that you have
satisfactorily completed the post. When you apply to sit the final assessment, the
trainer or consultant with whom you are attached will verify that the log book is
complete and authenticated.
Educational and Academic Activities
You must record the fact that you have sat for and succeeded the basic board
examination. A copy of the Jordan Medical Council Primary board certificate
should be included with your logbook. On this sheet, records of attendance at
other training courses, meetings, and lectures should be recorded. It is not
intended that you record educational activities within the unit to which you are
attached. Publications and other personal contributions should be included as
well as any involvement in research projects.
The logbook is divided into numbered segments, corresponding to the training
posts held. Details of your record of practical procedures should be completed for
each of these posts. There is a consolidation page to summarize the record of
procedures performed.
