 +====== Subject-specific tracks — RTI Wiki Citizen Guide 2026 ======
 +{{ :social:auto:cpd-tracks.png?direct&1200 |Subject-specific RTI tracks — RTI Wiki CPD}}
 +
 +<WRAP center round info 95%>
 +**Specialised mini-courses** for officers handling RTIs in five high-volume subject areas. Each track is 5-6 focused lessons (~3 hours) that builds on the core CPD course. Take the core 12 modules first; then add the track for your domain.
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +===== Why specialised tracks? =====
 +
 +The core CPD course teaches **statute and procedure** — universal across departments. But a Police PIO faces case-diary RTIs and §24 proviso questions every week, while a Hospital PIO wrestles with patient-record §8(1)(j) balancing, and a Bank PIO operates under the Jayantilal Mistry framework. The general course can't go deep into all five.
 +
 +These subject tracks **assume you've completed the core 12 modules** and dive into:
 +
 +  * Domain-specific case law not covered in the general modules.
 +  * The 5-6 most-common reply templates for that domain.
 +  * The 3-4 §8 / §11 / §24 / §22 frictions unique to that domain.
 +  * One end-of-track scenario exercise from real CIC orders.
 +
 +===== The 5 tracks =====

 +
 +===== How to use a track =====
 +
 +  - Complete the core 12 modules + final exam first (the track assumes core knowledge).
 +  - Pick your domain. (Officers can take more than one track if their work spans domains.)
 +  - Read each track lesson; it links back to the core modules where relevant.
 +  - Take the **track-specific quiz** (10 questions, 70% to pass, 1 attempt counts toward your CPD record).
 +  - Attempt the end-of-track scenario exercise. Submit via the [[:cpd:notes.html|notes panel]] for self-review.
 +  - On clearing the quiz, your certificate adds the **"Specialist: <Track Name>"** annotation.
 +
