Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Full time member of staff at the hospital, dealing with patients completing ECGs, fitting monitors, cath lab, echo scans etc
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I really enjoy my time at the workplace, but not my time at Manchester Met University
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
The large majority of my job has developed new skills as it is very specialised
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
From the hospital's side, this is very well organised and I have exposure with everything I need. However, the organisation of the degree at MMU is dreadful.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Anything I need from my employer would be arranged if needed.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
If I required any further help or training, this would be arranged.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
My qualification from MMU doesn't help with my job/role, apart from the two specialist studies modules which were relevant.
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
