We have taken great care to ensure no information that is stored on Appraisal Toolkit will be lost during your migration to the upgraded version. Even though some sections of the Toolkit have been removed or merged, any information you had added to them will still be present on the system, it will just be found in a different place.

For Clinicians this includes any Health, Convictions, Probity , Reflection and Mandatory Training information.

For appraisers this includes any appraiser notes and summaries that have been added.

Due to the nature of the migration process there are several fields that will need to be repopulated. These are: Roles, Qualifications and Last Year’s PDP. All of the information required is stored within your historic appraisals, and can be copied and pasted into the Toolkit, however they cannot be imported.

 Please note: This is the only time you need to add this information – it is automatically added to any subsequent appraisals you complete with Appraisal Toolkit.

Your Last Year’s PDPs are stored within your last appraisal. The first time you complete a new appraisal with the upgraded Appraisal Toolkit you will need to re-enter this information.

To view your items from last year, view your appraisal documentation (See FAQ 1) then click “Agreed PDPs” in section 4 of the left navigation menu. You can download any attached documents and copy and paste the saved details into "Last Year's PDP" in section 2 of your new appraisal.
