Professional Academy staff profile

Diane Earles

Head of Customer Experience

It’s my job to make sure everyone has the best learning journey with Professional Academy and achieves their goals.

About

A bit about me

I work closely with Philip Knowles, Head of Learning, to ensure that our programmes are engaging and inclusive, building in as much flexibility as possible to make them accessible too. The Operations Team help me to deliver a great customer experience for learners and employers and The Marketing Team help me to spread the word of our achievements and those of our learners.

How I support learners

Practical support, clearly explained

How I help learners

I help learners and employers by planning their programmes to meet their requirements and addressing any issues that may arise.

Ask me about

Come to me if you have a complaint, need assistance or a shoulder to cry on!

What good support looks like

Good customer experience starts with the individual, rather than processes and procedures so I always want to get to know our learners and employers first.

Outside of work

I am told I have a ‘no nonsense’ attitude to getting the job done, so I will, in the words of Hannibal ‘either find a way or make one’!

Department

Leadership and quality

Strategic contribution

We pride ourselves on being a caring provider and offering a personal service, so I am the face of that promise supported by our amazing Operations Team.

Quality and standards

Our main concern is the learners in our care, so maintaining quality, compliance, consistency and trust is an ongoing task and we strive to be the best we can and every day is a learning day.

Experience and judgement

As a subscriber to Continuous Professional Development, I feel I can easily relate to our learners and employers.
