Remediation Evidence Portfolio Builder

The builder is for registered healthcare professionals in the UK who need to show what they have done to address a concern, and who want that evidence to be clear and easy to follow. It is most useful if you are:

• at an early stage, after a concern has been raised, and want to start organising evidence from the beginning rather than in a rush later;
• under investigation, gathering material your adviser may share with case examiners or an investigating committee;
• working under an interim order or conditions, and need a running record of what you have done to meet them;
• preparing for a hearing or a review hearing, where a panel will want to see a coherent account of your insight and remediation;
• returning to practice or applying for restoration, and need to show what you have done since;
• keeping a development record with no current case, perhaps after a complaint or a learning event at work.

These stages appear as options on the portfolio cover, so the document states clearly where you are in the process. The builder is also useful to defence advisers and supervisors, who can review a single well-ordered document rather than a folder of separate files, but the account and its contents belong to you.

The builder has a section navigator down the side, and each section has its own fields. A completeness meter shows how far you have got and which sections still need work.

1. Cover. Your name, registration number (optional), regulator, the stage you are at and the date prepared.
2. Concern summary. A short, anonymised summary of the concern in your own words. The meter looks for at least 60 words, enough to set out what happened without detail that could identify anyone.
3. Chronology. Dated entries for what happened and what you have done since, with optional notes. A clear timeline helps a reader see the sequence of your learning. The free hearing timeline planner is a useful companion for planning ahead.
4. Courses and certificates. Courses you complete on our portal are listed for you, with completion date, hours and certificate number; you can untick any that are not relevant. You can also add other learning by hand, with the provider, date, hours and evidence reference.
5. Reflections. Dated reflections with a title. You can paste them in, or, if you also have the Reflective Practice Workbook, import reflections you wrote there.
6. Testimonials. A tracker for each referee: name or initials, role, date requested, date received and status (not yet requested, requested, received or declined). Our free testimonial request generator helps you write the request itself.
7. Practice changes and audits. What you changed, when, and the evidence, such as an audit result or a revised checklist.
8. CPD log. Dated CPD activities with hours and key learning.
9. Action plan. Actions with a target date and a tick when done, so the portfolio looks forward as well as back.

When you are ready, the builder produces a print-ready document: a cover page, a contents list, numbered sections and an evidence index that lists each certificate, reflection, testimonial and practice change with the section it sits in. Use your browser's print option to save it as a PDF. You can also download a plain-text version, which is handy if your adviser wants to paste sections into their own documents.

Export as often as you like. Many people export a version before each meeting with their adviser, so there is a dated record of how the portfolio developed.

Your portfolio is stored in your own student portal account and is only read or written for you when you are signed in. We do not share it, and the builder does not use AI or send your text to any outside service.

Please keep the portfolio anonymised. Do not enter patient or service user names, dates of birth, NHS or hospital numbers, addresses, postcodes or other details that could identify someone; use roles and general descriptions instead. The same applies to colleagues where their identity is not needed.

You can delete individual entries, or all of your portfolio data, at any time from within the tool. Consider exporting a copy first.

The builder is a structure and a filing system. It helps you present your own evidence clearly. It does not assess your insight, tell you what a regulator will accept, or say whether your fitness to practise is impaired. Regulators and tribunals look at the evidence as a whole, including the nature of the concern and how you have applied what you learned in practice.

A planning and writing aid, not legal advice. It does not predict any regulatory outcome. Healthcare Practise UK is an independent provider and is not affiliated with, approved or endorsed by any UK healthcare or social work regulator, the MPTS or the NHS. Please take advice from your defence organisation, union or a solicitor before you submit anything to a regulator.
