Complete the scenarios in each module to evidence its competencies. Each completed scenario builds portfolio evidencemapped to the KSBs — the same evidence the End-Point Assessment draws on (knowledge test, practical observation and professional discussion). When you've demonstrated the competencies across the ring, the next ring unlocks — and your path to chartered advances with it.
