Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
I have found my programme well structured with RBS. However, I have found BBP difficult at sometimes this is because there have now been a few different time where arranged webinars or meetings have been either cancelled last minute or attended a meeting and no lecturer has arrived and we had not been told what has happened.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

I receive a lot of support form my employer. they are always going out of their way to make sure that i am happy with what i am doing, have enough time to carry out training and that i am always learning more things.

5/5
I do receive a lot of training from my provider with a well structured plan set out.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
My Qualification links directly to my job role and helps and supports me all the time.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Yep, so I am part of the Great Place to Work Team in Manchester and we work together to develop great activities to bring people together and support the community. May that be either fundraising or helping out in a shelter.
