姓名:蒂姆·斯莱特
职位名称:数字学习设计师
你是如何进入现在的职位的?
With seven years’ experience in training, I was looking for a new challenge. My role at the time as a digital learning consultant was 100% home based and I missed the office environment that I had enjoyed in previous jobs. I saw the 莱瑟姆 role on LinkedIn and put my application in after doing some research in to the firm. 我的培训背景, 我对科技的热情, and my portfolio of interactive and engaging digital learning content all helped me on the road to success.
在莱瑟姆工作，你最喜欢的是什么 & 沃特金斯?
There are some great benefits to working at 莱瑟姆 and 沃特金斯 but my overall favourite has to be the fantastic culture at the firm. This, of course, is made so great by the people that work here. 莱瑟姆 employees come from a range of different backgrounds who are all great at what they do. 这里的人很热情, 乐于助人，总是乐于聊天, it makes the trips in to the office feel really worthwhile; and I continue to build relationships. There are often both professional and social events going on in the office too which helps bring people together to connect.
你的日常生活是怎样的?
我的日常工作就是在项目上进行合作, 例如, coordinating training resources for the launch of Microsoft Teams. I work with an international team of technology trainers and we draw on the expertise of this global team to weigh in on key decisions and output. 脚本, recording and editing training videos is a key part of my role along with managing the firms learning management system with my counterpart in Los Angeles. The team and I are always looking for new ways to bring creative and informative content to our firmwide audiences keeping people engaged and helping them to learn all sorts of technology skills.
你的日常工作需要哪些技能?
Project and time management are both absolutely key. There is a fantastic level of autonomy in my role, so it’s important I plan out the high priority jobs to ensure they’re done on time. 视频编辑, script writing and voice-over recording are three skills that form the foundation of my role along with development of digital learning content. 学习理论, 包括适应不同的学习方式, 这也是角色的重要组成部分吗. Effective stakeholder management, is essential to helping the department run smoothly. The ability to work both independently and collaboratively are also key.
What is the most exciting thing you have worked on?
I designed an interactive simulation of Microsoft Teams for our New York Trainer Summit. I was new in to the role and this was a great opportunity to show off my eLearning design skills. I enjoy working in Articulate Storyline which is the tool I used for this project. The final module allowed users to interact with Teams in a sandbox environment and included some humorous feedback when they got the tasks wrong. The module was well received by all; key stakeholders enjoyed using the model, and it felt great to make wins so early in my time at 莱瑟姆.
