Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Organising contractors, scope of works, costs and leading project from start to end of properties in need of maintenance or redecoration both internally and externally.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
It's ok, enjoying it more now than at the start.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes I am building on property knowledge and project management skills.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
I would have to say the beginning of the course was not structured at all and very all over the place. Things have since settled down but can still be times of inconsistency.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
Employer has been supportive in allowing me time to complete coursework.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
Receive the training in classroom, so far so good.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
At the moment because the course is still relatively new, it hasn't made a difference to my job role. I am hoping over the next term to incorporate it to my job role.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Yes.
