Yes i have adopted a lot of new skills whilst being in my role.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
It was organized well throughout, however the training provider was poor in organization. QA wasn't efficient at letting our cohort know what the next steps in our apprenticeship were.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My Employer provides me with all the support i need.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
1/5
Little. During the apprenticeship, i had 4 different skills coaches, so at points it was very hard to receive support.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
It wasn't too related to my role, but defiantly will help when it comes to understanding the network.
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
Yes
