Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
the structure provided has been good in terms of communication, planned meetings, next steps etc but this wasnt the way when i initially joined. the first tutor had an unmanageable work load so i didnt see/meet him for a few months
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
more than enough - both managers i have had through the duration of this call have been outstanding i their support and expertise
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
again my current tutor is brilliant - hes very honest and matter of fact - not being generic in feedback very specific - lets you know if he thinks you can do better - he set realistic work and was able to provide good links to find info to upskill.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
when i first started the course i wasn't in a project role and found this course extremely difficult as couldn't apply it - once i moved in the project role it all clicked in to place. i do think there should be restrictions applied as this does hinder the learner
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
no
