5/5
It has been well planned and organised throughout the programme, and there wasn't a time that there was anything missing or not changed without sufficient notice.

From amazon as a company, we get a lot of support, unfortunately some of the managers are not as helpful, although mine have been relatively supportive, some have had issues with managers
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Amazing support throughout the programme with all 3 coaches, this does include my functional skills coach, there hasn't been a time where I couldn't ask a question and get an answer almost instantly, they've been really helpful and couldn't be happier with the experience
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It's allowed me to learn more in depth of what the happens behind the scenes of amazon, helped understand what managers are doing more. And how I can help do my part in creating a better flow of workload and experience for others throughout the working day.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
There are different events throughout the site that go on, especially events to celebrate different cultures or international days, as for sports teams I havent heard of any yet.
