I thought that it was organised at the start, however things seem to be constantly changing and not everyone is being made aware of these changes.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

GE as an employer offer lots of support, however some support such as pay queries etc are extremely hard to resolve. Overall the support off my people leader and manager is amazing
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

Although it would be beneficial to maybe see our college tutor more frequently or to set time to go down the college and complete our NVQ, we have the option to complete our work a couple of hours a week at work
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

Some of the work and business information learnt through my NVQ helps me with business communication in my role, however due to the extent of work we do, this is very rare

GE offer the three peaks challenge, open evening volunteers, and sometimes calls with GE worldwide
