Starting work for the VillageWebCompany has been a very positive change for me and has put me in a fantastic position to grow as a person and learn many useful skills in the near future. Some of the things I have been learning in my first week are things such as how to operate WordPress and many other computer based applications.
This has given me some independence to do things I couldn’t or wasn’t aware of previously.
It has also given me an insight into potential things things I can do in the future if I choose to such as the ability to start, operate and maintain my own websites.
Another thing during my first week I have been working towards is online badges via the website idea.org.uk. You are awarded points for covering different topics and taking a series of short tests afterwards and completing them in order to achieve a digital award.
The badges available to be achieved are currently Bronze & Silver, I am now working towards my silver award.
