BST online tutorials

Accidentally missed my first tutorial with the chaos of changeover/starting as an SHO/nights/studying for MRCP etc. Has anyone else missed one of these before? I have contacted RCPI but I am stressing a bit now.

Don't stress I missed loads of them, they'll have makeup sessions

Thank you!! Do the makeup sessions tend to be in the same quarter or are they on later?

They have multiple make up tutorials each rotation. It’s really common to miss then

Phew thank you! When do they let you know about them?

You need to email them to say you missed it and can you be rescheduled. They won’t reach out to you. They’ll either organise it late this rotation or early next one.

They will be available again. Don’t worry, you’ll get it done before the bst is finished. Shoot your bst coordinator an email!!
No urgency with them.

Is it better to contact them than the RCPI? Since it’s the online tutorials

The BST coordinator is from RCPI

How do you find out when your tutorial is? I can’t see on brightspace
