My employer has been supportive in allowing me to work one day a week out of the office
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

There could be more support. It's very dependant on the individual taking responsibility. Individual lecturers are good but the wider support is poor

3/5
I have been debating whether or not to continue into my 4th year and have received feedback that it is not going to make any difference in my career progression. I do, however, feel that it has encouraged a growth mindset
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
Nothing formal
