Skills & Learning - In conversation with Steve Plummer

Over the the past 2-3 years This is Milk has become heavily involved in the world of upskilling & reskilling, with the creation of an award winning training programme, multiple client run training programmes (conducted around the world), and an in-depth research project looking at international best practice to direct Scottish Government in ongoing activities.

It has been a journey born from our want and desire as a business to solve problems, initially to tackle the issue of the digital skills gap in Scotland, swifty moving on and thinking larger to see us traveling the world and growing a community of experts that both advises and drives everything we do. One of these experts is local business transformation expert, Steve Plummer, who since meeting not much longer than 2 years ago, is now not just one of our trusted trainers, mentors and consultants, but a member of the This is Milk family.

Following on from our recent live Zoom event, in which our MD Angela discussed remote working and facilitation, we wanted to continue sharing knowledge and insight in a similar way. Once again Zoom seemed best appropriate and we decided to bring Steve in and start a discussion around skills & learning, tapping into his experiences with This is Milk, before This is Milk and into the future. Joining him in this conversation is Al Morris, who has led much of our training arm over the past few years and currently manages our programmes, clients and students on their learning journeys with This is Milk.

In this conversation we looked at:

• International best practice
• The skills of the future
• What you should be learning now
• Online vs Offline
• Building & utilising communities
• Learning methods
