Knowledge sharing & continuous enablement

• Administer and support Financial Aid peer-to-peer learning and knowledge-sharing channels to encourage collaboration, problem-solving, and consistent practices. • Monitor employee questions and discussions, providing timely answers, guidance, or escalation to appropriate subject matter experts. • Identify recurring questions, knowledge gaps, and opportunities to improve existing training, processes, and role-based resources. • Translate insights from employee interactions into updates and enhancements to Financial Aid toolkits, job aids, and other enablement resources. • Promote awareness, adoption, and ongoing use of available learning and performance support resources.

Innovation & future-state enablement

• Help shape the evolution of Financial Aid enablement by identifying opportunities to improve how employees learn, access information, and perform their work.
• Explore and contribute to the adoption of emerging technologies, including AI-enabled knowledge and performance-support solutions, where appropriate. • Partner with Capability & Enablement leadership to pilot new approaches, evaluate their effectiveness, and scale solutions that improve employee readiness and performance. • Identify opportunities to simplify workflows, reduce repetitive questions, and make rolespecific knowledge easier to access and apply

Business partnership & performance support

• Build strong relationships with Financial Aid leaders and employees to understand business needs and performance challenges. • Partner with leaders to distinguish knowledge or skill gaps from process, system, policy, or other performance barriers. • Recommend training, resources, reinforcement, or other enablement approaches based on identified needs. • Support leaders in reinforcing role expectations and effective practices following training. • Participate in launches or changes that require Financial Aid employee training, communication, or adoption support.

Measurement & continuous improvement

• Gather employee and leader feedback to understand the effectiveness and usability of Financial Aid learning experiences and resources. • Monitor training participation, readiness indicators, learner feedback, and other available measures of effectiveness. • Identify opportunities to simplify, improve, consolidate, or retire training and resources. • Use insights from employee questions, recurring errors, and performance trends to continuously improve Financial Aid enablement. • Contribute to broader Capability & Enablement initiatives and share effective practices across functions.
