Learning at Work Week 2020 – Your Career Framework Roadmap

Introducing our new Career Framework Roadmap

As you know ‘Keep Learning’ is one of the Five Ways to Wellbeing, so if there is an opportunity to celebrate learning at Midcounties, we’ll take it! It’s Learning at Work Week and this year the theme is on ‘Learning Journey’s’, making it the perfect time to launch our new Career Framework Roadmap.

You will recall that back in August we launched our Career Framework and communicated with all colleagues which level their role sits in the framework, based on the job skills, knowledge and training required to operate at that level. 

A real benefit of the framework is making it clear to all colleagues what career and development opportunities are available across the Society, so we have now created a ‘Career Framework Roadmap’ to help make possible career pathways clearly visible and easy to understand.

What is the Career Framework Roadmap?

The Career Framework Roadmap has been designed to enable you to easily navigate through the different areas of the business to see what career path options you have, either where you currently work or elsewhere in the Society, along with what development opportunities are available to make that next step.

We also have the Career Framework Guide letting colleagues know what knowledge and experience are required within each job family and at each level of the Society, which may be more relevant for colleagues with a more unique or specialist role. This allows you to tailor your development plans and focus on your strengths that you can continue to improve and where it would be useful to gain new knowledge and experience to help you perform at your best.

The Benefit of a Learning Journey

Both the Career Framework Guide and Roadmap will enable great conversations about your development in the role you’re in and your career if you have the ambition to progress further. So to get started on your ‘learning journey’ please check in with your line manager to discuss your goals, options and to create a development plan to get you there. We have created various templates to help you prepare, record or reflect on these conversations, so if you find that useful, please access them from the section of i.Learn here.

For our Line Managers

If you are a line manager, we have created a ‘Conversation Toolkit’ with some conversation starter and coaching questions, along with suggestions of where to go next for more information on what is available for colleagues. You will find this in the ‘Colleague Check in’ section of the Manager Zone of i.Learn.

Still need a little more information…

Please do continue to refer to the Learning and Development or Apprenticeship pages of Colleagues Connect which we will continually update with the latest information on what development is available for you.
