My employer is fantastic, always respecting and fully supporting my learning journey. Even when I had to cover for one of my colleagues and was clashing with my study day, they always made sure I had an allocated day to catch up with my studies/learning.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I am receiving full support, if anything is unclear apart from our meetings, I am only an email away from contacting and ask for guidance or assistance . The response is prompt, detailed and professional.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
My communication skills and adaptability when talking to customers or underwriters has improved immensely. Having the confidence and waste knowledge about insurance and the heads of cover specific for each business and being able to differentiate the needs and demands of each customers, is the fine line between quality and average service.
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
I have been taking part into Association of Indoor Play Expo and coming up the NMT Awards that will help me display my insurance knowledge and gain potential new customers.
