Recommendation
Approvals is widely used for GP practices and others across nearly all Local Offices
- Develop solution to support - the solution would entail allowing users is to enter periods of Approval into reference data for sites, however may be more complex for trainers and requires further investigation, as well as granting access to Trainers (see here)
- All teams use Hicom supported service
Manual workaround - use email / spreadsheet system until a solution can be developed

Discussion & Assumptions
# | Question | Comment | Owner |
---|---|---|---|
1 | what is a domain? | domains are defined by the GMC, standards required for recognition = domain (see link sent by James - http://www.gmc-uk.org/education/10264.asp <http://www.gmc-uk.org/education/10264.asp> | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
2 | what’s the relationship between accreditation pathway and domain? | An accreditation pathway sits under a domain as an evidence record, a single role can have muliple domains against it. An accreditation pathway constitutes of 1 or more domains. Domains are managed under reference data in Intrepid. | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
3 | what’s the report functionality purpose? | Allows users to pull reports on what approvals are complete etc. | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
4 | what are free CPD points? How are they used if at all? | Not recorded in Yorkshire & Humber local office | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
5 | what other evidence types are there? | custom [free text] / course [reference table list] /alternate [doc/meeting/teaching session] | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
6 | what does verify evidence bring up? | Approved / Partially Approved / Not Approved Course approval must be completed before entering into the system | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
7 | How are GP sites being catered for in reference data? | There's a site approval date section against each site on the site reference table UI. | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
8 | whats the impact of not knowing whether they have trainees assigned to a trainer? | Needs to be known, to ensure any risks of non-accreditation is managed | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
9 | is it necessary to view list of all evidences submitted? | Yes, a drop down would be helpful (se #6) | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
10 | do they need to be able to upload documents (see alternate)? | No documents needed for Y&H local office; any certification maintained by Trust | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
11 | should courses be linked to courses and events for trainees? | it looks like courses can be paid for by HEE (as course cost is a field) | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
12 | Who are the users that can manage accrediation pathway and domains? | Local Office admins and Trust admins | |
13 | What is the relationship between an accreditation pathway and role/s? | An accrediation pathway can be created with multiple roles | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
14 | What is the relationship between an accrediation pathway and a Local office/s? | An accreditation pathway can be associated with one or more Local Offices on creation. | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
15 | What is the relationship between site approval and trainer approval from an admin perspective/visibility? | Processes are different but managed by the same administrators very often (Quality teams) | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
16 | What is a Tracker and its relationship to a Site Visit? | Sites are approved after receiving 'Visits'. These visits can result in recommendations and the steps required to suffice the recommendation can be recorded in a 'site visit tracker' | Alistair Pringle (Unlicensed) |
17 | Do site visits need to be recorded? | I don't think this is necessary as visits are so interlinked with site approvals. possible that we can add a field or 2 if desired by the SMLs. | |
18 | Who defines the "other" pathways? Do admins need access to the reference table to do this? | pathways and roles are interchangeable in this instance. Hopefully we can get agreement on a stable set of values. | |
19 | Do we need any more roles than educational / clinical supervisor available to approvals system? | Yes | |
20 | Are pathways now rationalised? ie. can the same pathways be used across all local offices? Do we need to rationalise them ahead of TIS launch? | we do need to look into rationalising these. | |
21 | How do we display existing approvals? Read only? We may not show all fields, does this matter? | ||
22 | Do attendees complete a course per domain, or a course per pathway? | it varies. some courses satisfy multiple domains. | |
23 | Should notifications be in scope? i.e notify that a supervisory's approval is coming up for expiry, notifications of site visits due, notification to supervisor? | not at this point as it can be dealt with via reporting. | |
24 | what interaction was planned for intrepid for trainers and would it make more sense administratively for the trainers to complete these forms? | going forward i imagine the 'trainer ui' will be |
