Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
3/5
New skills in vision and strategy, finance and consumer insights.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
It's structured ok - some clashes with annual seasonal events. At one point 2 assessments were due on the same day which is not ideal. The time period during marking could be used to look ahead at the next assignment
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Received the required time to complete the activity. Given opportunities at new experiences to support the development of my portfolio
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
Coaching support is excellent. Some confusion between Arden requirements and the requirements the coach had been sent had conflicting messages. This made things complicated at the start.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
Some elements have helped me to become more future focussed and to understand the bigger global impacts on retail rather than being siloed.
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
No
