We are conducting a 20-week pilot to deliver the Essential Digital Skills (EDS) Level 1 Qualification. The qualification will be offered onsite in our learning hub. The digital coach will deliver the course to companions in a manner that supports their individual learning and well-being needs. This is a fixed term contract for 20 weeks, working 12 hours per week (two mornings a week).
Main Duties and Responsibilities:
You will deliver the (EDS) qualification to a small group of adult learners using a person-centred, coaching approach.
• You will work with companions to develop their digital skills, confidence and self-esteem.
• You will be provided with course material but will work in collaboration with the learning and development manager to customise learning resources to the context and experience of our companions.
• You will use the curriculum scheme to plan each lesson to meet qualification requirements.
• You will support companions to complete online learning tasks.
• You will understand the qualification assessment criteria and the assessment
instruments. You will support companions to pass the assessment and successfully achieve the qualification.
• You will complete all administrative tasks required to meet qualification regulations, with the support of the learning and development manager.
• You will record lessons learned to improve subsequent delivery of digital skills qualifications. This will include obtaining companion feedback to inform the delivery and design of future digital skills courses.
