• Gather, analyze, and act on learning metrics, participant feedback, and reporting to continuously improve learning quality and efficiency.
• Support measurement strategies that go beyond completion, connecting learning activity to behavior change and performance outcomes where possible.

Collaboration & Influence

• Work closely with senior leaders, subject matter experts, and cross?functional partners to co?create learning solutions and build shared ownership for capability development.
