4/5
I have learnt how to mange projects methodically, improved my communication techniques and have become more self aware which overall has improved my managing people skills.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
At first it wasn't at all and i wouldn't have continued with the programme if this carried on. However, after addressing this with the tutor and some changes with a new tutor is completely changed my experience for the better.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
Supportive to have some study time but i don't think they really understood the time and workload the course comes with, only because I am in a senior role i was able to influence this.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I have received as much support as i need.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I can clearly see where I can apply knowledge, skills and behaviours I have learnt in my day to day role, i think i have made quicker decisions and have become more well rounded manager
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
not really
