After 2 months of working at the village web company I have learned a lot of new things and re-established previous skills I had such as some graphic designing using Affinity Designer
Learning to use an isometric grid was a challenge for me at first but after a few days of learning it started to come together
Idea Award – Silver Badge
I recently achieved my Silver badge on the idea award website resulting in an online badge/award. I achieved the badge by doing little courses that help with teamwork, problem solving and creativity and eventually completing the majority of the available courses.
Management skills
My time management skills and project management is improving as time goes on and I learn to calculate realistic time scales for tasks I regularly have to perform such as maintaining plugin updates on client websites

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.
