The structured, anonymous feedback provides a valuable basis for performance reviews, mentoring, and ongoing personal and professional development.
eRET is a very helpful tool for us that meaningfully supports and objectifies the 360-degree feedback process.»
«The Department of Anaesthesia at Kantonsspital Baden has been using eRET for several years for the 360-degree assessment of our resident physicians.

Plan, conduct and evaluate the entire assessment process
With RET, you plan the entire assessment process flexibly according to your needs: from the invitation through rating and evaluation to the closing discussion with the person receiving feedback. The moderator responsible for RET always retains an overview.
Dashboard shows what's due
After the initial configuration of your instance, the dashboard shows the moderator which assessment is due next according to the development and training plan, and which are already underway.
Manage assessments
Via the launch dashboard, the moderator starts new assessments, postpones or cancels them. Invitations are sent automatically by email, with reminders if needed.
Complete open to-dos
On «My dashboard», both feedback-givers and feedback-recipients see their open to-dos – assessing others or evaluating themselves.
Assess online
The questionnaire can be displayed in two views and is filled in directly online – structured according to the chosen scale, with free text.
Evaluate & release
The moderator closes the rating – manually or automatically after the expiry date – and releases the report. Tutors and authorised persons can then view it, and it also appears in «My portfolio».
Conduct closing discussion
A discussion can be organised for the milestone: based on the report, the tutor and the person receiving feedback discuss the results and record the next development steps.
Everything you need for the assessment process
From dashboard and timeline through 360° feedback to central user management and configuration – all ISMed-RET features at a glance.
Everything in view, nothing forgotten
On the dashboard, the moderator can see at any time which assessments are due according to the milestone.
Each person's timeline shows open and completed to-dos at a glance. Overdue ratings can be followed up with one click via reminder.
Feedback from different perspectives
For each questionnaire, it is defined who assesses – automatically pre-configured or individually added. This creates a picture from multiple perspectives, complemented by self-assessment.
Assessment is structured according to the chosen scale, with free-text comments and additional information for each question.
Manage users, roles and permissions centrally
Record master data manually or import it via an interface. Assign tutors, allocate roles, record absences, and release reports selectively – all in one place.

What you'd like to know about ISMed-RET
What is ISMed-RET?
ISMed-RET (Resident Evaluation Tool) is a web-based tool for the structured, regular assessment of physicians’ performance and competencies – supporting the professional development of physicians at all levels.
Assessments are gathered from different perspectives, recorded in a structured way, and made available online as a report once completed.
How does an assessment work?
As soon as an assessment is due according to the milestone, the moderator starts the assessment.
The assessing persons automatically receive an invitation by email and complete the questionnaire online via a direct link. Reminders can be sent again if needed.
Once completed, the report is available to all authorised persons.
Which institutions is ISMed-RET suitable for?
For hospitals and accredited training institutions that want to support and document the competency development of their medical trainees in a structured way – independent of specialty.
How is it assessed – which scale?
The assessment is structured using a freely selectable scale – for example 3-, 4-, 5- or 10-point.
The levels can be labelled individually, such as 1–5, 5–1, A–E or E–A, depending on your institution's needs. Each question is supplemented with free-text comments and optional additional information.
Built-in validation ensures that only fully completed questionnaires can be submitted.
Does software need to be installed?
No. ISMed-RET is web-based and runs in the browser on any device, including tablets. No client installation, low support effort for your IT.
Can ISMed-RET be integrated into our IT?
Yes. RET can be connected to your identity management (IAM / SSO) and operated either locally on your intranet (on-premise) or as a cloud solution hosted by ProtecData.
