PROFILE
John Robertson
John Robertson developed and maintained the ministryofjustice/hmpps-accredited-programmes-ui repository, delivering end-to-end workflows for course referrals and programme management. He engineered robust MVC controllers, REST API integrations, and session management to streamline referral journeys, including HSP and Building Choices flows. Using TypeScript, JavaScript, and Nunjucks, John improved data consistency by centralizing reference data utilities and aligning API types with backend services. His work included accessibility enhancements, security updates, and comprehensive test coverage with Cypress and Jest. By refactoring code and enhancing error handling, John ensured reliable, maintainable user experiences that accelerated referral processing and reduced integration risk across the platform.

May 1, 2025May 2025 monthly summary for ministryofjustice/hmpps-accredited-programmes-ui. Focus was on delivering end-to-end HSP workflows, centralizing reference data utilities, and strengthening ACP integration, enabling faster, compliant referrals and improved data consistency. Key features delivered and business value: - HSP course flow and not eligible path: UI elements, details checklist, not eligible path, and submission flow to streamline eligibility decisions and referral initiation. - HSP Referral Reason Flow: dedicated controller, routes, navigation from the previous step, and session management for hspReferralData to ensure accurate, stateful user journeys. - HSP Referral Submission Flow: API path and client method for POST /referral/hsp, session preparation, and updated referral service to handle HSP referrals, ensuring referrals are created with hspReferralData when present. - Reference data utilities and sexual offence details: centralized ReferenceDataUtils, endpoint calls for `/reference-data/sexual-offence-details`, regenerated API types including SexualOffenceDetails, and test factory support for reliable testing. - Organisation/ACP integration: updated ACP types, introduced OrganisationClient, implemented getOrganisationFromAcp, and end-to-end flow support to fetch national course offerings. Impact and accomplishments: - End-to-end HSP workflows reduce manual steps, improve eligibility accuracy, and accelerate referral submission. - Centralized reference data reduces duplication and improves consistency across UI and API layers. - ACP integration enables reliable organisation lookups and national course offering discovery. Technologies and skills demonstrated: - MVC controllers, routing, and session data management - REST API integration and endpoint wiring (reference data and referrals) - API type regeneration and test factories - Data utilities and organisation service integration
