Dev team demo 'done' work contributing to those goals (no reference to specific Jira tickets, and no reference to work not 'done')
Area | Description | Team Representative | Demo - from Prod URL where feasible |
|---|---|---|---|
Trainee Self-service (TSS) | Self sign-up (new components allow for password confirmation and toggling password visibility) | Live demo (stage environment due to the pilot still in progress) | |
Revalidation | RO details update in prod | Brief Discussion: Different Responsible Officers (or Deans) delegate different levels of responsibility to their teams in different Local offices/Designated Bodies. When a recommendation is submitted to the GMC, corresponding DB’s Responsible Officer’s surname, gmc id, designated body code are also submitted to GMC along with the doctor’s detail. The RO details are cross checked in the GMC’s database. If the details are correct only then recommendation is allowed to be submitted. | |

Extend filtering by ‘CURRENT’ to the ‘Other Specialities’ for extended options added by the user | Before:  After:  | ||
Add validation to TIS Email field to make unique | Trainees set up their account to access TIS Self Service by the Email address, so we need to add validation on TIS (UI/Bulk Upload) to prevent duplicates happening. https://apps.tis.nhs.uk/admin/people/person/3/edit-personal-details | ||
Spike - Recording of Curriculum membership and Programme membership to be refactored | Curriculum membership/s is abstracted in the current TIS model, we need a refactor so that curriculum memberships can be distinctly identified from programme memberships. This causes problem in accurately reporting on a trainee's curriculum membership/s which is abstracted in the current model. The pain point to refactor is that the current data model is widely used in all of our applications. So during this iteration, we did the spike on how to carry out the refactor. We investigated how to normalise the current data model, found a robust solution to do the data migration and roll out the changes in a non disruptive way. And then we analysed the effects on all the downstream services. | ||

TIS team development (following external review)
Last Review I highlighted that we recently had an external review of how we work within the TIS team. From that review, a number of recommendations were put forward for how we can alter things going forward. The whole team is actively working towards implementing these recommendations. As we are a team that at its core believes in transparency and openness, we decided to give you a flavour of what we have been working on:
...
We've created and published a Team charter
We're about to hire a User Researcher, and are looking at the team needs in terms of other Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) professions
We're reviewing all our meetings and events with a view to rationalising them in the near future
We're embarking on team training in User-Centred Design: Online, 15hrs over 5 days | On-site at one of our offices, 1 day
Progressed work on standardising Job Descriptions / Job Summaries.
Some of the team attended the online GDS UCD training.
Looked into sensible ways of splitting the team’s work up by Services and Products, with Users as the driving force.
Started the review of Stakeholder mapping.
During Iteration #5
Ongoing work around how to split the team into multiple squads/small multi-disciplinary teams
Started analysing reviewing the Performance Analyst capabilities in the team, with a view to formally ensuring we address them as a team, or we look to recruit to fill the every increasing need to measure success and identify improvement opportunities.

We really do welcome any feedback you have for us - whether it be negative or positive, or whether it be a suggestion of something we could try/incorporate in a future Review. We absolutely don’t want to stand still. We’re very happy applying the 12th Agile principle of ‘becoming more productive’ to our Reviews themselves!
