- Curriculum & Platform Support: Maintain lesson plans and manage external learning platforms, including enrolling and tracking learner progress in Coursera for the Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate modules (specifically Tableau).
- Administrative Duties: Update the LMS (Canvas, Salesforce) and communication channels (Slack) with attendance, grades, and progress notes daily.
