Experience

The work behind
the perspective.

A grounding in education, skills development and the everyday realities of helping people progress.

These examples describe experience gained through Earle’s professional roles and collaborative work. They illustrate the perspective brought to consulting engagements.

01

Skills development

Connecting learning, qualifications and work

Experience in training-provider leadership has brought together programme delivery, quality assurance, employer relationships and learner progression. This has included work on qualification pathways, learner support and the evidence needed for assessment and completion.

Areas of involvement

  • Training and skills-development operations
  • Assessment arrangements and quality assurance
  • Employer engagement and learner pathways

The perspective this brings

Design the delivery conditions alongside the programme: people, evidence, responsibilities and support.

02

Academic operations

Understanding the whole student journey

Higher-education responsibilities have included academic programme operations, student records, progression, admissions interviews and completion processes. Work with students and colleagues has also involved navigating circumstances that affect engagement and progress.

Areas of involvement

  • Academic progression and completion processes
  • Student records and operational coordination
  • Individual circumstances and student support

The perspective this brings

Review a process from both sides: the institution’s responsibilities and the person trying to navigate it.

03

Learning & assessment

Making development practical

Design work has included workshop activities, assessment briefs, reflection tools and personal development planning. Recent work has also involved proposals for developmental learning experiences and pilots of tools that help learners reflect on how they would like to be supported.

Areas of involvement

  • Applied activities and assessment design
  • Reflection and personal development tools
  • Programme proposals and learner feedback

The perspective this brings

Connect the learning intention to a task, a useful conversation and something the learner can try.

04

Coaching & engagement

Creating space for people to move forward

Experience includes individual developmental conversations, student engagement initiatives and support around goals, strengths, academic progress and transitions. Structured storytelling and reflection have helped create starting points for conversations about identity, opportunity and future direction.

Areas of involvement

  • Individual developmental conversations
  • Student engagement and reflective dialogue
  • Goals, strengths and transition support

The perspective this brings

Begin with the person’s context and leave room for them to choose a meaningful next step.
