Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My role involves managing the property management system (CAFM), this includes updating CAD Plans, updating occupancy information, supplying lease information and providing reports across our Estate.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I have found this course very worthwhile and I have really enjoyed the learning. The only problem is that I had such a large break between switching providers which didn't help with revising etc. Although this was no fault of paragon, it was due to Qube going into administration.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have learnt a lot of new skills since starting this course. I have attending property management courses and learnt about the legal side of my job role. I have also learn a lot through this programme as before undertaking this course I had no experience with staff performance management and I have now dealt with this. I have also been exposed to a lot more financial information due to this course and undertaking the financial module.
