Carbon - the new gold

Education Manager at CMI

A brand new world

I have taken another plunge and left CPA Australia to assume a position with The Mint Group. As far as value propositions go Mint offer more than just the RTO service of my previous employer Performis. Not only embedding trainers into significant hospitality businesses but also we offer job ready staff. My new role offers me a chance to continue my management of people but also lead an entrepreneurial business into new markets. Let's see how it goes!

A thousand cuts

Been a log time coming. Successes: Getting four accountants to do their Certificate IV in Training and Assessmnet. Meeting all budgets. Navigating AITD Conference in Sydney. Understaning the coding system of our products and data basese and how they connect. failures: Loosing Sam my best team memebr. Rushing latest tender response to the ATO.

Down the rabbit hole

We are undergoing training in Hive CPA Australia's repository. The question I keep considering is technology serving or demanding??

A new way of working

Our team has undergone its' first day of training to set the scene for them to take up a greater degree of business acumen in their work. The portfolios of resources that they are all responsible has been culled so as to open a bigger space for them to engage in business development. Essentially this means products will be developed that will have a greater popularity among CPA members.

2 weeks in

The puzzle of CPA is assembling in my head as are the tasks that wil set my KPIs. My first real work has been putting together a submission - just like my first tasks at Holmesglen so many years ago.

CPA

Another few months have flown past and I have left my role at Performis and now gaze out onto Melbourne form the 29th floor of the CPA offices in the role of Senior Product Developer Executive in the Member Knowledge Department. All very challenging and back to what I do best; elearning.
