How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

4/5

We receive a significant amount of support. We have a skills coach to help us relate our learning to the experiences we have at work and our tutors are really knowledgeable. The communication and accessibility we could have to our tutor could improve.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

It definitely does as we are learning techniques and tools that i can see used in my organisation and that i can apply to improve my performance. Doing the learning through the qualification helps me make sense of different things at work

4/5

Yes. There are several different activities such as volunteering in the local community, sports teams including a sports day in the summer. There are lots of networks for everything you can imagine - i am part of the women’s network.
