I have learnt how to address people professional issues in a differing way, apply specialist knowledge and research any gaps in my knowledge, the importance of building strong working relationships with stakeholders as well as team members, where to find information when gaps arise, who to contact to assist with issues
I have thoroughly enjoyed the programme so far. In my role, I can be limited to resourcing and this course has given me exposure to other aspects of human resources and what it means to be a people professional.
I think the programme has been outlined very well. Workshops and group learning once a month and then individual learning in between. At the beginning of the programme, we were encouraged s a group to network and reach out in-between organised workshops which has also worked really well.
I do receive a good amount of support from my employer in regards to time required for off the job training, exposure to different projects and responsibility for being involved in projects to broaden my knowledge. However, as part of my progress reviews, there hasn't always been a presence from my employer due to urgent work and sometimes exposure discussed in my progress reviews hasn't always happened
My lead trainer is very good, he responds in a decent amount of time to my e-mails. I work with him to provide updates on where I am at with my assignments (due to currently being off work) and he is very supportive at suggesting suitable timelines and alternative ways of working.
I have noticed that the language I use has improved, the projects I get involved in I am able to apply my learning to be actively involved, my training provider encourages me to get involved in work I wouldn't normally which has massively helped me to develop my skill set.
There has been activities linked with well-being such as virtual yoga, meeting for a walk at lunch time which is open to the whole trust so anyone can go along, management encourage working lunches to network with colleagues outside of our teams.
Yes
The trust is a nice place to work, employee voice is encouraged which makes you feel valued, learning and development opportunities are encouraged.
Research the Trust, research the job description and personal specification, benchmark the benefits against competitors which will show the Trust provides some really good benefits, link in with colleagues and speak with informal contacts prior to applying.
