I feel that the qualification has so far enabled me to perform better in my role and I feel that I am communicating better but also what I have learnt from the task sheets have helped understanding the other areas in the business that contribute to my 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.)

There are professional networking events which are great if you get invited to them and a brilliant place to network with others.
