I have learned a lot of valuable skills and theory that I can apply to my role while working on my qualification. Being given the opportunity to apply these skills in my role has helped me develop.

There are often social events within my team and with other teams. There is also a Sports + Social Teams Channel that offers lots of different things to get involved in such as 5-a-side football which I have frequently attended.
