> Feedback at Review particularly in terms of suggestions as to what to focus on next

The Admin Team

LTFT: Show list of applications

@Steven Howard

The LTFT tab in Admins UI no provides a view of the available LTFT applications based on the user’s assigned DBCs.

Data is fairly limited at the moment due to having to be hand crafted, but if you want some data for your own testing let us know and we can create something sensible.

LTFT: show application detail

@Steven Howard

Clicking a row in the LTFT summary table will show the full details of that LTFT application.

Again, the data is hand crafted so may not be the most realistic. But it should be enough to give you a good idea how real application would look.

LTFT: unsubmit/approve application

@Steven Howard

Submitted applications can be approved or unsubmitted.

Admin Roadmap


“In focus”

Post funding - deliver a redeveloped approach and support implementation and national consistency.
Keycloak to Cognito migration - completed, but we need to clear out remaining work.
LTFT - developments to support trainee adoption. Wider issue around how TIS supports delivers cross-team / product change and this covers all types of users
Data projects - Oriel to TIS and improving data exchange processes with Royal Colleges.

“Next”

Revalidation improvements - to refine Connects and improve use and usability.
User management improvements - to reduce risk and improve user experience and how we manage users.


”Need to deal with focus”

ESR - renewal of focus and consequential improvements
Process alignment - coordinated restart that will lead to a process of change and development / improvement
Northern Ireland - some outstanding issues
Support for users - review how we support users

“Further out”

Archiving - we are non-compliant with data retention, so there are live corporate risks
Data auditing - to improve transparency and mitigate against IG risks e.g. of accidental/purposeful changes to data
Placement management - improve how we manage placements across the user journey

 

Future focus / iteration plans

Post funding

Cognito continuation

LTFT in support of the Trainee team
