I have been given many opportunities to learn new skills and develop skills I already had.

The structure is well planned but there is a lot of unexpected changes made, it is understandable considering the nature of the job.

I have received support and advice whenever I have needed help.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

Support is available at any time through emailing management, from my experience they are very supportive.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I think the college experience gives the basic knowledge before entering the workplace.

Not sure.
