Any support in place for trainees?
Each of the schools have their generic inbox with HEE email address (e.g. Anaesthetics etc.)
Each speciality manages their inbox, 12 people for medicine, 5 people for pathology (their role depends on their bands - Band 3 very task based, higher bands will have oversight; different tasks like sub-speciality...)
Form R, ARCP, Rotation queries go to school inbox
LTFT has separate inboxes
IDT has its own inbox
No separate assessments or programmes team - structure has been in place since 2012
Use SharePoint a lot.
Any inboxes management as part of your support process?
Programme support does a bit of everything.
If yes, how do you manage the inboxes ?
They are by school - so nothing like assessment inbox
How many queries do you get per day/week… e.g placement/assessment queries?
Becky to come back with
Do trainees have an opportunity to see the data you keep on them on tis? If so what's the process of managing queries/change?
Quality team do something on GMC survey (not programme team)
In line with CoP, email sent to trainees to confirming their details. This is done where their placements are confirmed.
Rigorous validation against TIS and previous rotation to check quality of data mitigate the bulk of trainee queries.
Any dedicated Team to manage the queries?
Is the support the same for Dentist & PH?
Follow the same process of generic inboxes
Any document for your FAQ?
Emails (welcome letter) sent and Form R Part A asked to be filled alongside
website - Becky to send
Do you do have any KPIs? Any system or process to measure this?

Any plans to improve your current system?
Communication could be chaotic during peak - ARCP/Rotation
Email addresses- how to ensure correct email
Tedious checking of multiple emails - over 1,000 ARCP Outcome letters by email by an individual Band 6 (hired a temp).
CoP mass communication automation to reduce admin burden.
Integrating TIS with various e-portfolio
Email/Phone
Less from trainees more from faculties
