Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
It was fairly structured. I knew the timeframes of when I needed to space out my projects and I had monthly meetings with my L&D coach who was fantastic. The training sessions were nicely spread out and very organized. We knew exactly what we were doing and when and how it applied to our projects.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I received a lot of support from my employer. They always made space for my projects and helped me find opportunities to work on different projects that was a business need. They were supportive in completing my employer reference and had nothing but good things to say. I can't complain!
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Lots they were always in contact and I couldn't have asked for a better coach. He was so supportive gave me quality feedback on my projects and thoroughly enjoyed learning and working with him. I felt very prepared for the EPA and had all the tools and advice needed.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I now have more confidence and am able to have a better understanding of how to use data to explain our HR metrics. I can neatly create and organise dashboards so they are showing informative information and I am now able to explain data that is technical in a simple way to key stakeholders.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Due to covid no not really, however, I have gone out for drinks with some of my colleagues which has been a great opportunity to network again. I am on the look out for more opportunities to get to know people better especially outside of HR. Really looking forward to getting back into the office.
