Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
My role is both valuation and agency. On the valuation side I do site visits and write up the reports and take photos. On the agency side I make brochures, correspond with clients and show them round properties.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I really enjoy this programme. The people I work with are really bubbly and fun and I enjoy the work I am doing.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have developed my writing by writing lots of reports, emails, and brochures.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
It is well organised. I have one day a week dedicated to my degree studies, and the other 4 days are working.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I couldn’t ask for a better team. They are so supportive and have been so helpful showing me the ropes.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
There’s always someone to help
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I think the first couple years of the degree course aren’t so relevant to my day to day role at work but most definitely the last few years are. The first years are the building blocks for what is to come though.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
There are lots of networking events and days where we go and do team building
