Goal for the next two weeks
Primary Goal
Improving trainees journey to sign up/log in and submit FormR on TSS
Provide guidance and support trainees via WordPress support site
Link the Sign up/Login & Support tab page to the WordPress site Welcome to Trainee Information Systems Support - Trainee Information System Support
Investigate into chatbot solutions
Looking at support data trainees are experiencing issues when signing up and logging into TSS. (see below screenshot Top 3 issues reported reported incidents - Sign up, Authenticator and FormR unsubmission requests)
When looking at chatbot solutions, we need to ensure chatbot is available to trainees at the point they signup/log screen.
Based on the frustration/complaints we have received on support desk, its important we ensure trainees are able to sign up/login on TSS without any issue - For the first instant we may need to focus on setting up conversation trees related to signing up/logging in TSS and then build further based on questions we get asked.
Other tickets to progress to improve user experience
Removal of Private Beta message as its confusing users
Common question spreadsheet Common Question Asked by PGDIT when using TSS.xlsx
