Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Administrating the LMS overseeing the content for all areas of the business on a national level, pushing content out to the relevant position/areas with the required due dates for compliance audits.
Reporting at a national level to monitor compliance.
Designing and developing eLearning modules using the LMS to push out the SCORM packages.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
It's been extremely beneficial for me in my role, I feel like it has really increased my confidence when dealing with stakeholders in the business which was always a key area of improvement for me. I have gained a lot of professional knowledge from this apprenticeship.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
The theories behind learning and development and different design models to understand the processes and why we do things in a certain way and understanding what I need to consider when developing content.
Knowledge in how to evaluate the impact of learning and the importance of this.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Completing the knowledge elements of the CIPD on Avado learning provided a really structured learning experience with the units split into weeks and assigning a timing allocation really helped me organise my learning. The apprenticeship side has been very organised, I always know what I need to do and when to do it.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I have received a lot of support particularly from my Director, where I have needed support to obtain her input or review documents to load to HIVE she has done so very quickly allowing me to continue working through.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My apprenticeship tutor has been really supportive, each call has helped me to put things in to perspective and understand my next steps as well as anything I raise that I need support with. It's always been clear that further support is also available if needed in between calls.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
The knowledge gained from the qualification is really supporting me in my day-to-day role to make the decisions I need to make confidently and be able to relay this to stakeholders to gain their confidence in my ability as well. I have a deeper understanding in the industry and why we do certain things.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
There are events throughout the year planned in to raise money for charity with TCT and a team building day takes place in summer every year to get the department together.
