Reminder of BOPA SACT Verification Passport Grandparenting Deadline

Dear member,

 

As of the beginning of this month, we have 139 registered sites and 1,600 users subscribed to the SACT verification passport.
This is a fabulous uptake and we appreciate everyone being so engaged.
We hope you find the resource user friendly and beneficial to training and practice.

A reminder that the “Grandparenting Clause” will be available until November 30th 2024, 13-months from the “go-live” as per the Passport Set up and User Guide.

This is extended to June 30th 2025 for those completing the paediatric section, as this was launched later than the adult content.

We encourage all staff who intend to grandparent themselves within the Passport, please do so prior to this deadline, as beyond this, the grandparenting function will no longer be available.

As always, we welcome feedback on your experience with the Passport.
Please contact [email protected] for clinical queries regarding the Passport and contact [email protected] for technical queries surrounding the app.

 

Best Wishes,

BOPA Passport Pillar
