Really enjoy the programme. The course is structured and all info is provided to set learners up for success. Deadlines are set for tasks which is great and hold you accountable, but in an already demanding job doing the apprenticeship alongside it, deadlines for anything other than coursework / OTJ hours can be additional stress.
