Self-Assessment Progress Testing (SAPT)
SAPT is an education activity designed to support your registrar’s learning and clinical reasoning teaching. It’s also a useful tool to help with exam preparation and self-assessment throughout their GP training.
Each SAPT consists of 50 applied knowledge test (AKT) questions and 8 key feature problem (KFP) cases taken from previous RACGP exam papers. Once the test is complete, the registrar can access the correct response, the rationale behind the response, resources for that topic, appropriate curriculum link/s and suggestions for further study. They can choose to do the SAPT under exam conditions (80 mins for AKT and 80 mins for KFP) or non-exam conditions (untimed, self-timed, open or closed book).
As a supervisor, we also recommend you complete a SAPT as part of your professional development, especially if it has been some time since you sat your fellowship examinations. Any time you spend on SAPT can be self-logged as CPD hours and will enable you to better support your registrar as they complete exam preparation. You can access the different modules by logging into your RACGP account and selecting gplearning.
