How to complete your assessment – a brief summary
- To start an assessment go to ‘Feedback’, select ‘Dashboard’, enter your Case Identifier (e.g. R v McNaughtan) and click ‘Add new case’. Case Identifiers are visible on reports and emailed requests to provide feedback so should clearly identify your case to relevant contacts.
- On your Dashboard, click ‘Complete self-assessment’ to provide your self-evaluation of performance against the domains.
- Email the professionals you would like to include in the MAEP feedback process, to introduce MAEP and confirm their agreement to participate – you can copy and paste content from the template provided, ‘Template Email for Requesting Professionals' Feedback’.
- When ready, go to your ‘Dashboard’ and enter your professional contacts’ names and email addresses under the section, ‘Request Feedback from Professionals Involved in your Cases’. Click ‘Send email’ when ready.
- The professionals you have chosen will be sent an email by the MAEP system inviting them to provide their feedback online. Automated reminder emails will be sent weekly until a response is received.
- You will need to have received at least two responses on an individual case in order to receive a Case Report. You can receive a Cumulative Report once you have at least 4 responses across your cases. You can see the number of responses received on your ‘Dashboard’.
- Case Reports will be available to download from your 'Dashboard' once the minimum number of responses have been received. You will need to contact the MAEP team to gain access to Cumulative Reports. For each case, remember to complete your self-assessment - select the link to 'Complete self-assessment'.
