About Gemma Smith:

I am seeking a shift in my career path. I am currently working in the Education Sector, with a background and expertise in Learning and Development and Consultancy. In my previous roles I have devised and implemented CPD programmes for both experienced and training members of staff. These programmes have been delivered both face to face and virtually. Therefore, I have experience in Learning Management Systems, and am highly proficient at producing e-Learning materials on a selection of platforms. Alongside this, I have experience in leadership and project management, holding a National Professional Qualification in Senior Leadership and additional certificates in project management and workplace coaching.
