Multiverse

“Without the Multiverse programme, I probably wouldn’t have thought to use automation and macros; it pushed me to look for solutions I wouldn’t have considered before.”

“The dashboard that Simon was able to roll out has absolutely linked to us delivering our customer experience expectations. It enabled the business to look at different themes across the estate.”

“Our data programme is a huge investment from the Partnership in our data-driven culture. In terms of launching apprenticeships to scale, working with the team at Multiverse has opened our eyes to the art of the possible.”

“While many organisations know instinctively that they have skills gaps, it’s a challenge to identify them, quantify them, and close the gaps. We have big ambitions, including in helping the UK to decarbonise to reach Net Zero, and we can’t let skills gaps hold us back. Identifying and closing those gaps is helping us deliver on our goals, and enhanced data skills across EDF to help our customers save carbon and cash.”

“At EDF, we recognise that a data transformation takes more than new technology, change needs people to create a culture that uses data to take action. We partnered with Multiverse to actually find where the company would benefit from building broader capabilities beyond data teams, enhanced existing skills, and put in place the Data Academy to deliver them.”

“Since beginning with the Data Academy, we’ve felt the benefit of improved day-to-day data capabilities across the organisation. Individuals have started thinking in ways they wouldn’t have before, identifying opportunities and working on achieving the outcome themselves.”

“I recently spoke to one of my colleagues in the accommodation department, who used to have to transpose data from one spreadsheet to another and into a system on a regular basis. He’s now developed a Python script to automate this. Everyone has their own example of a piece of automation that has helped them to streamline their tasks. You’re creating a more efficient organisation, and that starts with individuals.”

““I found working with the coaches to be a really positive experience. They really support you, challenge you. They’re empathetic and they provide useful feedback in the progress reviews.””

““Using apprenticeships for growth and development is such a great opportunity, not only because you get a qualification – you get external support and the social learning aspect is really good – but also you apply your learning almost in the moment. You learn something in a workshop, and then you are literally doing it in your day job. The practical application is almost instant.””

“Through this collaboration, we aim to position HCLTech at the forefront of ethical AI deployment, ensuring that our clients benefit from the transformative power of AI while upholding the highest standards of integrity and productivity.”

“This strategic initiative underscores HCLTech's commitment to harnessing AI responsibly to drive business outcomes. By partnering with Multiverse, we are not only equipping our workforce with advanced AI competencies but are also amplifying our capacity for innovation and excellence in service delivery.”

“This initiative encourages responsible data use, strengthens robust data processes, and promotes collaboration with our partners. Ultimately, it enables us to leverage data insights to enhance social good and improve outcomes for communities across Essex.”

“Essex County Council provides a diverse learning programme designed to help our colleagues confidently engage with data, fostering evidence-based decision-making at every level. By participating in the Data Academy through the Apprenticeship Levy, we are further investing in our workforce, ensuring they understand the purpose and potential of data.”

“Through the data apprenticeship programmes, our staff are helping to build an insight-led culture, where data is used to drive operational and strategic business decisions.”

“We’re constantly using innovative technology and data to enrich the lives of our students. Multiverse’s programme enables us to increase our data skills and take our data maturity to a whole new level: equipping staff across the School with the data skills they need to thrive in their careers and to support our students.”

“We can all benefit from the ROI of the Data Academy to support our data transformation journey, which will touch all parts of the School.”

“Everything that happened at WGSN in terms of my career path matched up perfectly with the Multiverse course. Enhancing my data skills helped me to move my career ahead.”

“Having a stronger lens on data is really empowering our account management team to drive more meaningful ways of collaborating with our clients. Data really helped us bring that missing piece of the puzzle into a partnership and grow that investment 56% year-over-year as we were activating different parts of what we do to better serve their needs.”

“In terms of retaining clients, identifying and taking advantage of upsell opportunities, the data acceleration program has had a direct impact. A lot of businesses didn’t realise just how much data and analytics WGSN had available to support their project goals. Once they saw how embedded data was in our forecasting process, it helped us win new business.”

“At WGSN I have two important roles; one is to lead the data science and analytics team - the other is to elevate the data analytics capability of the organisation overall. By upskilling individuals to become data efficient in their varied roles and functions, meant that they could move the business forward and deliver products and services without dependency on the data analytics and science team.”

“Through partnering with Multiverse we have been able to take the necessary steps needed to drive a purposeful hiring plan and develop the talent needed for the future of our organization, alongside offering an amazing opportunity for apprentices to gain valuable skills and have access to development opportunities.”

“The apprenticeship provided a deep dive into the skills and requirements needed in the software engineering industry. It’s given me an opportunity to resolve critical issues that affect customers using the cloud based application.”

“Data Fellowship apprentices are leading the way. They are helping us to build a data culture at every level of the business by learning and applying their skills and knowledge in their teams, as well as sharing insights and ideas with colleagues cross-functionally.”

“The Multiverse Data Fellowship programme is integral to our data and digital transformation strategy and I'm continuously impressed with the quality of outputs we see from the apprentices. They're driving real business impact for internal and external clients whilst also developing their own toolkits and career pathways. For anyone looking to hone their data analyst skills or reskill into a data role and apply their learning - this programme is for them.”

“When I had my second child, I decided to take a break to prioritise my family. After three years, it felt like it was the right time to get back to work. What stood out to me about [Reactivate Your Career] is that it's not only about getting back to work, it's also about upskilling. Not only am I back at work, I'm also learning something new through the data program. The best part about the apprenticeship is taking those concepts and applying them to your work”
