To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I have consistent review meetings with my manager to make sure I am not feeling overwhelmed and overworked.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
My course is mainly online which means that it's hard to get a lot of support. However, there are a lot of resources available on their online learning tool.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
It helps me a lot - the course is very interlinked to the tasks that I do daily.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
We have opportunities for volunteering days with charities. As part of the apprenticeship network, there is a lot of team activities with other apprentices. For example, sports days and training opportunities.
