5/5
I receive a great level of support as they always check in and make sure you are progress ok
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
My training provider could be better at communicating but other than that they help me when they can
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I feel like I perform to a high standard in my role but I would say this is because of Siemens Healthineers as my training provider is more written and my job is more working on site and about gaining experience
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
Not that I know of
