Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
I am split between audit and data analytics. During busy season I was in audit but soon I will move to data analytics. I also spend 20% of my time throughout the year doing university work.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
2/5
The programme isn't awful but it is not entirely relevant to my job.

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learnt a lot of communication skills that are appropriate for work as it is my first job and also technical skills e.g. excel.

It is well organised and fits in well in terms of time with my job.

I get plenty of support for my projects and for time when I need it
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I receive plenty of support and they offer multiple resources to assist us.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
1/5
It doesn't really so far, maybe future modules will help.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Not really had a chance to explore yet due to covid.
