Opportunities

..for work		..to save you money
Every so often one of our Members becomes aware of work opportunities that they feel are best shared with other LNG members. This is often because the work is... ..not in their area of expertise ..too big for just them to handle ..they're too busy to resource it themselves Whatever the reason, the Learning Network Group may be in a position to help, by emailing all our Members with the details or by placing details on this page.		The Committee have secured DISCOUNT for Members across a wide range of Training-related products and services. The list will continue to grow and if you know of any additional discount opportunities, eMail the Committee
Work Opportunities December 2002 Work opportunity for experienced "Train the Trainer" or "Train the Coach" deliverers. London Underground Ltd. is reviewing the training that it provides for its Station Assistants and as a result has a need to train a number of coaches from around the business. Ideally you should be D32 qualified, but this is not essential. What is important is that you are available early in the new year. In the longer term, they will also be looking for people who are interested in becoming a mentor to some of their full-time trainers, to help them develop their skills. This would involve sitting-in with trainers, providing feedback and "coaching". Again, ideally you need to be an NVQ qualified coach, but this is not essential. What is important is an interest in helping develop these trainers who have some reasonable delivery skills, but need help in getting up to speed with more interactive training techniques. This opportunity is particularly suitable for anyone running a limited company. Daily rate is Ł400. If you are not a limited company, you would need to sign up with an agency, who would deduct tax/NI etc at source. The advantage is that it is good for cash flow - payment is made via a timesheet, and the money is usually in the bank on the Thursday of the week following the week that you worked (e.g., if I submitted a timesheet for this week, I should be paid by next Thursday). Any interest, please call Paul Mason on 07803 728738 BEFORE Christmas September 2002 A client has asked me for someone who can train/facilitate TQM at Director Level. Initially to give: overview of TQM set up systems to monitor and evaluate some knowledge of service-based industry preferred and client currently working in the Travel Industry. Need name and telephone number, together with brief outline of applicable experience and/or website info which will be passed onto client. Many thanks and good luck. Philip Philip Palmer Unicorn Resource Development August 2002 This, just in from Philip, which some of you may already be aware of... Auditions From: Sold Out Trainers <info@soldout-trainers.com> My name is Peter Rice of Sold Out Trainers and we will be holding auditions for independent facilitators to cover a broad range of 'Soft skills' subjects. You need to be a very special person and although experience is valuable we are more interested in the style of a trainer. If your idea of training is to control us, deliver a lecture and use 55 slides in a darkened room, then I think this not the opportunity for you. But if you are credible, your audition is interactive, fun and you are able to gain our trust and you can teach us something at the same time, then we would love too see you. Please email me and we can tell you about the auditions Peter Rice July 2002 Please contact the client below using the email address shown, NOT anyone at the LNG as this'll just slow things down for you, as we'll then have to pass the infomation on, on your behalf CONTACT: David Browne, MBA Programme Director for Kingston University. David would like to receive CVs from anyone who can give softskills inputs to MBA groups. They will need to have business managementexperience to ensure credibility and help students make the links to the real world of business.
