Partners
Zircadian forges important relationships with other top providers to bring the finest workforce solutions to the NHS.
The new requirement for doctors to undergo revalidation every five years has led to the birth of an exciting new partnership between Zircadian and Perceptive Software.
To be relicensed a doctor must now provide a portfolio of supporting evidence, much of which is paper-based. Each year this evidence must be presented at the doctor’s annual appraisal and then again to a responsible officer at the end of the five year revalidation cycle.
Whilst there has been much discussion of the type and structure of this supporting evidence, what is clear is that whatever the evidence consists of, it must all be held electronically in one place. At Zircadian we recognised this core requirement early on and are now partnering with one of the world’s leading enterprise content management (ECM) providers, Perceptive Software. The result of this alliance is e-Appraisal, Zircadian's appraisal and revalidation solution.
