Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
It was a good programme, there was a weekly call to touch base and loads of support before exams and during the final Assessment
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
They were always very supportive, accommodated my need for study time and they were flexible with my workload when needed
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
They were very supportive as well, when I needed help they would reply in good time and joined a few calls when emails were not enough to tackle my issue
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
Very well. I got so much base knowledge from the programme that I was missing in my day to day work life. It filled many gaps and helped me see my Job Role from a wider view
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
We did a lot of charity work with the local community, we always had something extra going on, on a volunteer basis, never got any pressure to do anything
