Yes.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

At the beginning there were problems -out of CBREs control- however they were managed well. The college I attended also had issues which weren't managed so well.

I received a lot of support from my colleagues and direct management.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

The training provider offered adequate support.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I feel the course could be more tailored to the tasks we perform on site.
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
There are, but most of these are offered by the client.

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend CBRE Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Since being in the industry as an apprentice, I have heard about the other big companies offering the same services and most of these are rated less-superior by people who have worked there. It seems CBRE have the best standards and procedures.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to CBRE Group?
Your development of people skills is just as important as your technical knowledge.
