Learning for All
We will create an environment where all employees are enabled to take responsibility for improving their own development
Our new Learning for All programme offers a range of personal and professional learning opportunities available for all staff without restriction that are designed to enhance your skills and enable you to develop effectiveness in your current role while also preparing you for career progression.
In line with University and Public Health guidance, all face-to-face learning and development events have been paused. Where possible these events are continuing through online delivery and we are identifying new ways in which staff can continue with their personal development at this time.
These workshops are bookable via iTrent Self-Service.
