MyPortfolio

Everything trainees and supervisors need to know about our new cloud-based training platform, which is due to replace the TPS in November 2025.

Get ready for the launch of MyPortfolio!

We're excited to share an important milestone in our ongoing commitment to modernising and enhancing the quality of ANZCA’s training programs.

 

As part of our focus on delivering a consistent, contemporary, and high-quality learning experience for trainees, supervisors, fellows, and specialist international medical graduates (SIMGs), we’re replacing the Training Portfolio System (TPS) with a new cloud-based platform — MyPortfolio.


MyPortfolio is anticipated to go live during the week of 24 November 2025.

What's happening now

To support the transition, we’ve commenced Supervisor of Training (SOT) training sessions across regions. These sessions will continue through October, November, and into early December, ensuring everyone is well prepared.

In early December, we’ll host a series of drop-in support sessions for trainees, supervisors, and fellows. These sessions will provide opportunities to:

 

  • Ask questions about MyPortfolio
  • Receive refresher or follow-up training
  • Get hands-on support with the new platform

A growing suite of MyPortfolio tutorial videos is also available via Learn@ANZCA → Anaesthesia MyPortfolio tutorial videos. Additional resources will be added over the coming months.

Overview and demonstration

We're committed to modernising and investing in the future quality of our training programs. With our focus on modernising our training platforms to offer trainees, supervisors, members, and specialist international medical graduates (SIMGs) a consistent world-class educational experience, we're excited to announce that we're replacing the Training Portfolio System (TPS) with a contemporary cloud-based training solution for the anaesthesia Training Program called MyPortfolio.

Questions about MyPortfolio

Although our legacy TPS, developed over 12 years ago, has served us well, it has become outdated and limits growth and innovation. The system lacks scalability and flexibility, making it difficult to implement major enhancements or support new programs in a timely manner. As such, it no longer meets ANZCA’s evolving needs. 

MyPortfolio

Following a comprehensive and collaborative naming process, with the goal of identifying a name that is modern, meaningful, and scalable

Key priorities in the naming process included:

  • Simplicity: A name that is short, easy to pronounce, and easy to write
  • Clarity: Instantly understandable, particularly in digital environments
  • Familiarity: Aligned with existing platforms such as MyANZCA, reinforcing a cohesive and intuitive user experience

After evaluating current offerings and exploring branding opportunities, MyPortfolio was identified as the ideal complement to ANZCA’s digital ecosystem.

MyPortfolio is focused on presenting improved user experience, and clear presentation of training information that's easy to understand and interpret.

There are many benefits coming with the new system. Some of them will be more noticeable than others.

  1. The look and feel of the system have been updated to a modern standard in line with the ANZCA website.
  2. Workflows are being improved to make the system easier to use.
  3. The whole system has been designed with mobile devices in mind. 

The first phase of development (which focuses on the ANZCA Training Program) is scheduled to go live in November 2025.

Updates to the ANZCA Training Handbook will be made alongside instructional videos to reflect how to use the MyPortfolio.

We value any feedback you may have to improve your training experience. You can contact the Project Elevate team at [email protected].

While phase 1 of the project focuses on the ANZCA Training Program, there is every intention to extend the new platform to support the college's other training programs and offerings. The onboarding of the other programs and offerings will be prioritised as they are approved by council.

As we approach the release of MyPortfolio, we will be assessing transition requirements based on progress and time left to complete. We will be in touch with further information clarifying the transition requirements as soon as feasible.  

All your training data, including any saved but unsubmitted forms, will be transferred to MyPortfolio for you to ensure a smooth and seamless transition.
We’ll notify you in advance if there’s a need to pause submissions to TPS to prevent any data loss. To minimise disruption, data transfers will be scheduled during periods of low activity wherever possible.

All PFTs will be transitioned to MyPortfolio. We encourage PFTs who are about to finish training to finalise outstanding tasks before MyPortfolio is launched.

Trainees can retrospectively add cases in the new MyPortfolio system after the transition. While it's encouraged to keep TPS up to date before the transition, it’s not mandatory for adding past cases.

We strongly recommend downloading a summary report from TPS before the change to MyPortfolio as the report won’t be available in MyPortfolio immediately after launch
While your data will be migrated to the new system, having a personal copy of your training summary allows you to cross-check your training records. We recommend downloading the report before 21 November.

There is nothing in particular you need to do to prepare, however we encourage you to download your Trainee Summary Report and cases and procedures report by 17 November.

MyPortfolio navigation

Yes, MyPortfolio features notifications to ensure users are informed of relevant updates and tasks. Additionally, a task list/to-do list functionality is available to support efficient task management.
Automated email reminders are sent immediately upon task creation. This assists in streamlining the process and enhancing overall usability.
“List Tasks” is a new feature designed to enhance task visibility and streamline user workflows. It offers several improvements:
Direct Access: Takes users straight to the actionable step, reducing clicks and confusion.
Role-Based Dashboard: Serves as a central hub for various user roles (e.g., WBA, SSR, SSU Supervisor), showing relevant tasks in one place.
Simplified Navigation: Makes it easier to manage tasks by clearly listing what needs to be done, helping reduce workload and improve efficiency.
The “My Training Tasks” page displays all active tasks that are currently awaiting action from the trainee. Key features include:
Direct Access: Trainees can view, access, and complete tasks directly from the list.
Task Progression: Once a task is completed, it disappears from the trainee’s list—but the overall activity may continue with another user (e.g., an assessor).
Task Variety: The list includes a range of activities beyond WBAs, such as reviews, courses, and assessments.
Reminders: A task count is shown on the dashboard, and email notifications are sent when tasks are assigned and as reminders if they remain incomplete.
Due Dates: Currently, due dates are not shown in the task list, and there is no option to set them.

Not yet. Reminders to supervisors are part of upcoming development work but are not currently included in the “List Tasks” feature.

Yes, existing notifications have been reviewed and refined before being rebuilt within My Portfolio to ensure relevance and improved functionality. MyPortfolio also includes personalised alerts such as fee reminders shown to relevant users.

Yes. Trainees can use the recall feature to change their assigned supervisor for a WBA or MSF, provided the assessor has not yet started the task (i.e., no work has been saved). 

Rotations and placements

My Portfolio introduces several enhancements, including support for ongoing placements without end dates, improved validation for overlapping placements, and more flexible editing options. CPR notifications are now decoupled from placement duration.

Yes. Placements without an end date are considered ongoing. However, users cannot create new placements until an end date is added to the current one.

It is treated as ongoing, and the system prevents creation of additional placements until an end date is added.

The system will trigger a validation error, prompting users to adjust dates or edit/delete conflicting records.

All placements must start on a Monday.

Contact the ANZCA training team via [email protected] who will be able to edit or delete incorrect placements. 

Gaps are flagged as “unallocated time,” prompting users to adjust dates for continuous coverage.

Yes. Placements can be edited even after time has been recorded.

No. Rotation details can be entered during placement creation.

Overseas placements are entered as external placements and can only be created by the ANZCA training team via [email protected]
