How well organised/structured is your programme?

I receive a considerable amount of support from my team mates as they always look to help me understand concepts which I may be unfamiliar with.

4/5
I receive a lot of support from my employer towards my training for my qualification, as I have catch up sessions with my skills coach and my training provider looking at my strengths as well as what I need to work on.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

My qualification definitely helps ,e understand some aspects of the business. However, because of where I am located within the Bank, not everything that I learn is directly applicable.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

There are many different social networks that we can attend as well as social activities. There are table tennis teams for instance.
