NMBB Week 6 - Research & Critical Thinking with Umbrella Training
This weeks theme was Research & Critical Thinking
This was a great week’s worth of content, especially for those looking to understand and gather data, solve problems and find information for projects or campaigns.
We are delighted to see the positive impact these activities are having on our apprentices and business partners.
A quick catch up of last week!
MONDAY
Mr Motivator kicked us off on Monday, helping us move our bodies, reframe and refresh our minds, ready for the week ahead.
Grab your workout gear (the brighter, the better) and catch up anytime on YouTube or IGTV.
TUESDAY
Learning Consultants Will Braggins and Alison Ibrahim provided us a sneak-peek into topics covered as part of an apprenticeship with this week's focus on the Problem Solving Cycle.
This 20 minute session covered learning objectives:
What is a problem-solving cycle?
Why is it important to use the cycle? What happens when we skip the step?
This free class is perfect for current and curious future new apprentices! Don’t worry if you missed it. You can view it again on YouTube.

THURSDAY
Our apprentice, Victoria Parker, Assistant Manager at Shepherd Neame Ltd.
Victoria wrote us a passionate and informative blog about how she researched and processed information while writing her 9,000-word business project over lockdown.
FRIDAY
We ended week of Research & Critical Thinking with Martin-Christian Kent who joined us LIVE on LinkedIn for an interactive talk on: 'Research & How to Present Data Effectively'.
A great talk for any size or industry business gathering data, but especially good for those wanting to foresee any issues reopening after the COVID pandemic.
