Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
Well organised as was current showroom advisor was hard to get the time to complete the course work during work hours so some of this was completed at home.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I got support but as said previously it was hard to get the dedicated time to complete parts of the apprenticeship. I feel this was because I am the only full time showroom advisor.

My tutor was always available via email or phone when needed.

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
2/5
NO
