Career development
Whatever your role in the Society, your personal training plan will help you focus on your career direction and manage your own progress.
We encourage you to take on more responsibility and participate in projects and initiatives, to further your experience. Ultimately, your career progression is up to you but your line manager will guide you in the right direction.
We are keen for staff to become both academically and professionally qualified. We have a strong partnership with West Berkshire Training Consortium, who, in particular, have provided training for the National Vocational Qualification (NVQ).
