Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
I felt it was poorly organised as I had 4 different trainers and each one managed to lose most of the work I had done apart from my last 2 trainers.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
I would say a medium level of support
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
It depended on the trainer I had at the time. It more seemed like they were under pressure from their line manager to get it finished more than being concerned for me as a learner
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
I would say it has mildly improved my capabilities as a manager and managing people, most of my learning was whilst working in the new roles
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
No
