Focus for this iteration

The focus for the iteration has been Post Funding

We have completed an investigation (known as a spike) around how to automate post status (i.e. a current or future post) based on funding start and end dates. This is a key question for post management and post funding in particular. A complication is the link with ESR.

We have clarified our approach and will bring in work in the next Iteration(s), starting with a new “funding status”.

 

Conversation in the last review / recent conversations

  • Outstanding work carried over - Best made plans! Reformation of the TIS Leads group to help with focus TBC has been carried over due to Rob’s availability. *** full transparency - I cannot look at this until April and it is dependent on some wider conversations around user groups and governance ***

Specific and other work in hand

Rob to cover specific updates against the Roadmap

 

IT change-over - This is a placeholder - The move into NHSE IT is causing some issues with Teams and access to files and the like. Until things settle down, things may be a bit disrupted. *** watch this space, but likely the Review meetings (at a minimum) will need to be reset. ***

LTFT Discovery - The TIS Team needs to come together to look at how we are moving this forward, bearing in mind that there will be outputs for both trainees (on Trainee Self-Service) and for our NHSE Staff and others. *** this is likely to happen in April/May ***

Live defect investigation - Some of the team came together in Manchester to spend time investigation a previous issue. *** Cai ***

Ideas and Innovation log

  • We have circulated access to the (new link) TIS Ideas and Innovation Log.xlsx *** Looking at what ideas can be pulled into current work focus e.g. within post management/funding and revalidation ***
