  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • A digital learning designer creates learning solutions, such as training on how to operate a forklift, or how to use AI. The role involves negotiating with stakeholders, considering your users and their needs, and making a creative solution that can be iterated and improved on using data and feedback. Learning solutions could involve a trainer who delivers a talk to clients, it could be an animated video, a podcast, or a simple tutorial guide. If you are interested in user experience, graphic design, art, psychology and/or web design, this would be a great role for you.
