From Administration in Austria to Marketing in Mallusk

Two young office administration apprentices from Austria have completed a month of living and working in Northern Ireland as part of the Erasmus programme. 

 

Facilitated by Intern Europe with a practical work placement in TrainingMatchmaker.com Michelle Bichler and Romana Schöser have been upskilling in marketing and working to deliver creative social media content for a number of small local businesses from a range of co-working spaces including the Mallusk Enterprise Hub at Mallusk Enterprise Park, Creative Space in Belfast Central Library and Libraries NI lisburn road branch.

 

The duo documented their time living and working in greater Belfast on purposefully set up instagram channels: https://www.instagram.com/romana_in_belfast/and https://www.instagram.com/michi.belfast/ and through a number of blogs hosted on https://trainingmatchmaker.com/blog/

By sharing their learning plans and learning logs they hope to inspire others to get learning too. Their learning journey included availing of the free photography courses available in the Apple store in Victoria Square Belfast and completing the WorldHost principles of customer service programme by licensed trainer, Chartered Marketer Christine Watson.
