With over six years of experience as a Registered Nurse in the UK healthcare sector, Lilian Onuorah had built a solid career in both NHS hospitals and nursing homes.
But a long-standing interest in technology and project management inspired her to seek a new professional challenge — and ITonlinelearning provided the perfect opportunity to bridge the gap.

Why Lilian Chose ITonlinelearning

Initially hesitant, Lilian was encouraged over three years by the persistence and support of ITonlinelearning’s advisors, particularly Andy.
She chose ITonlinelearning because of:

• Programme flexibility — essential for balancing her roles as a nurse, mother, and wife
• Ongoing advisor support — quick, helpful responses to all her questions
• Strong community platform — fostering motivation through peer collaboration

The structured approach gave her the reassurance she needed to make the leap.

Professional Transition: From Nurse to Digital Practitioner

Upon completing her studies, Lilian successfully transitioned to a Digital Practitioner role within her NHS trust.
Her responsibilities now include:

• Training clinical and non-clinical staff on a new EPR (Electronic Patient Record) system
• Troubleshooting and superuser support during and after launch
• Driving smooth system adoption across departments

This career move allowed Lilian to blend her clinical expertise with project management and digital skills — a major professional milestone.

Standout Features of Her Learning Journey

Lilian praised several aspects of the ITonlinelearning experience:

• Structured learning path — requiring internal exams before official certifications, ensuring strong preparation
• Career guidance and recruitment support — including LinkedIn optimisation and CV upgrades
• Collaborative learner platform — making studying more interactive and motivating

These elements not only built her skills but also gave her the tools to stand out to employers.

Real Impact: Skills, Confidence, and Career Growth

Professionally, Lilian:

• Gained strategic thinking skills critical for project roles
• Upgraded her LinkedIn profile, leading to new career opportunities
• Developed the confidence to step into a non-clinical leadership position

Personally, she:

• Balanced intense professional and personal responsibilities
• Built resilience and adaptability in managing career transitions

“ITOL’s structured support gave me the confidence and skills I needed to step into a new world — and I’m thriving.”
