Multiple Choice Achieve APS



Multiple Choice Achieve APS

Multiple Choice as an organization are keen to involve volunteers in a range of activities in order for them to expand their skills and experience. To involve a volunteer in achieving the APS just seemed like common sense, 

Zoe has been at Multiple Choice for 2 years. She has the first hand experience of mentoring and what we were evidencing and this  was invaluable in completing a successful portfolio.

 

As a volunteer Zoe had largely done work with clients in a face to face setting and had rarely sat in the staff office and worked. This all changed when Multiple Choice put her forward to work towards achieving the APS.

 

Together they were able to meet and discuss the APS and before to long Zoe took control and came in weekly to complete the tasks. Daisy, Zoe’s mentor said “I was always there as a support and answered all questions raised. Zoe has been able to develop a range of skills from completing this and I did hear her say that she could "imagine doing project management type work!"
