Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
Some of the HR/Univeristy work could be structured a little better in my opinion, but sure it will improve as time goes on.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Lots, colleagues on desk very conscious of my situation and very appreciative of circumstances when giving deadlines etc
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
Again, think this could be better structured. Receive lectures etc but sometimes it feels as though it is a little bit of a content overload and not as efficiently done as it could potentially be
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
Doesn't make a massive difference, some bits of it are applicable to what I do day-to-day but others have no impact at all.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Yes, lots of networking events/client events/dinners etc that are great to be involved in, really great group of people in my team who make every effort to get me as involved as possible
