In addition to delivering standard courses they will also work with the Divisional lead Learning and Development Partner to identify learning needs and develop a range of learning interventions to meet these needs. They will design learning interventions that meet the highest accepted standards of design, be learner centred, innovative, demanding and result in improved practice.

They will also seek to develop the skills and knowledge of their peers within the team.
