Duration may be shortened by 6 months if the trainee has a PhD degree pertaining the field of infectious diseases or immunology. PID trainees should spend the majority of their attachment in an accredited tertiary paediatric ID centre with close working relationships with diagnostic laboratories  2 months should be spent in regional / supra-regional paediatric HIV centres  2 months should be spent in clinical laboratory attachments  2 months should be spent in paediatric immunology  The trainee is encouraged to spent time in: - adult infectious diseases - allergy All trainees must complete 8 weeks in total of laboratory attachments in clinical microbiology, virology, mycology, or immunology. It is recognised that service commitments can make it difficult to achieve blocks of time for laboratory experience. These can therefore be completed in any combination of days or weeks over the training programme. All trainees should receive a minimum of at least one week’s experience in microbiology, virology and immunology. 3.6 Assessment and monitoring of training The assessment of training competence is an issue for NTAs. However, ESPID and EAP have agreed the principles of such assessments which should include four separate components of competence – assessment of knowledge, assessment of experience (e.g. logbooks), assessment of work competence (workplace assessment) and a face to face oral assessment. There should be some form of certification of completion of training (or ‘Diploma’) issued by the NTA, that recognizes all aspects of assessment that have been satisfactorily completed. A mentor/educational supervisor is designated to each trainee at the beginning of the training programme. The mentor/ educational supervisor advises the trainee on important training issues and reviews the trainee’s progress at least at yearly intervals. In the first year an additional interview is held at 6 months. The trainee maintains a personal portfolio as described above, where the trainee documents relevant training experiences. This portfolio and the trainee’s progress through various levels of competency are regularly reviewed by the mentor/ educational supervisor and trainee. Successful achievement of competency is certified by the mentor/educational supervisor. Accompanying the assessment framework, the certification should be detailed and state:  The duration of the training  The centres in which the trainee received education  Describe acquired knowledge and skills
