- Collaborate with subject matter experts in the research, development and preparation of course content; submitting initial drafts for feedback and revising as necessary.

- Work with the Change Manager to plan and prioritise the overall training plan, content and delivery to maximise effectiveness, uptake and successful implementation.

- Manage and monitor the administration of training events including invitations, attendance lists and feedback forms.

- Carry out evaluation and analysis to demonstrate return on investment; making improvements as and when necessary; ensuring learning interventions are of a high standard, timely, relevant and provide value for money.

- Keep up to date records of training activity, inputting course attendance in to the central NFER data management system.
