While in my role as a training coordinator I have created a new training program with streamlined training mileposts. I have helped developed more than just qualification training, I have also incorporated roche ethics and references for success. I have red lined, improved, and updated training material for my department while also helping to develop new training and upskilling tools. The new training program has greatly increased time to qualification and proficiency starting with a revamped onboarding program. I implemented and organized training within Filling operations utilizing department and specialist trainers to produce an unprecedented number of qualifications and upskilling.
