Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
On my side, I wasn't impressed by the apprenticeship provider organisation as it started with the program to late in comparison to when we started to work and just provided us with basic programming languages workshops. However, to be effective, the program, should have matched our employment starting time and guide us from basic knowledges to advance, which it wasn't the case.

They are very supporting on request
