Greatly so! There are lots of things and topics learnt throughout the programme that I don't think I would have learnt in my job role.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

I have some great close friends who I work and socialise with, we also a a team do spend nights out together!
