I build training materials for across a large corporate sector, and I advise on DEI topics/concerns.
I've learnt some things from the programme, but find it often gets in the way of learning. I am entirely self-taught when it comes to L&D, so it would be nice to spend more time analysing things I might have missed, instead it's very programmatic. I passed this back as feedback, and my skills coach has been doing what she can, but she's still limited by the course itself.
Really not very much. I find some topics can be quite interesting, but most of them I find very hard to get to specific learning that would help me in my role.
In theory it's very well structured, for me I find said structure really limiting.
I get one working days worth of hours a week to complete it. Plus staff are encouraged to come to meetings with us for discovery. I would say though that we arer expected to put it on the back burner when key developments occur that require immediate attention. (I must admit those are often the bits of my job I enjoy the most, so I'm not the person to quibble over the time)
Limited support if I'm honest, but that might be because the qualification is at the end of the programme.
It has helped with some of the soft skills elements, but in the day to day deliverables it has not helped at all.
Not at my level.
Yes
It's a good place to hone skills, and there's always changes going on. It keeps it exciting.
RSAs values are core to everything we do, I would genuinely recommend looking them up, as well as the employee promise. If it sounds like somewhere you'd be a good fit, then apply.
