Very well, you have to be self motivated and watch out for updates, but the structure has been well organised.

I have changed employers during the course and the course itself enabled me to to be successful in applying. Both employers have been very supportive.

The remote learning has been a positive experience and whenever I have had queries, they have been answered. The coaching support has been very good.
