How well organised/structured is your programme?

it is well structured in general.. but I suffered a bit with going through 4 different tutors during my programme which I found very distracting and demotivating at times as well.

All support required. I felt fully supported
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

As mentioned in previous question having 4 different tutors didn't help with working towards my qualifications. One of them was new to company and he was learning along with me in terms how to run and manage my programme.
