Our Team

This is Milk has created an ecosystem of practitioners that are committed to delivering training for the Skills for the Future, and giving back to industry.   Below you will see a selection of the team from This is Milk and some of our trainers that we use to deliver the syllabus.  The skills issue was too big for us alone - but that's OK because we have an army behind us!

To deliver this we have a team of:

• Trainers - industry experts, skilled trainers and facilitators that not only know their jobs, are great at passing on their knowledge, and encouraging your growth;
• Advisory board - industry advisors from a breadth of backgrounds, covering banking, public sector, creative industries and beyond - here to keep us abreast of their domain movements and requirements. 
• Mentors - a curated team of volunteer mentors .
