Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Overseeing management and development of services that provide opportunties for students and graduates to gain experience and develop soft skills
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
Very much but I uinderestimated the workload so that is stressful ahead of my first deadline
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes - I'm already benefitting at work from the skills being developed so far. Particularly coaching
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Very well organised
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
As much as I ask for. I have autonomy to manage my own time so this is fine but sometimes things simply get busy. I've asked to be assigned certain priorities to use in my studies which has been agreed.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
A lot. There is so much support available at MMU. Live sessions and 24/7 online content
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I've only just started but it has started to make me think differently in certain situations.
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
Yes but I really don't have the capacity for that on top of work & study
