Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Creatively establishing digitally enabled ways of learning across the organisation, I design and develop new training materials including online modules, videos, photography, posters, animations. As well as co-ordinating the use and maintenance of the Learning Management System for Oasis.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
My programme has been exceptionally transformative and rewarding. I have learnt so much in a variety of areas of design, with half of my degree apprenticeship to go, I am excited for the future learning too. Being able to apply lessons and new knowledge in work in real time has been a really good experience for seeing how valuable the degree can be.
