Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Although it seemed a lot at first I found the training provides system easy to use and I could see throughout my progress. All sessions were given well in advance so I was able to organise my diary around this. The structure of the course was easy to follow and there was lots of additional stretch resources to use
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I received a lot of support from my employer throughout. There was nothing more they could of done to support me whilst I was undertaking the apprenticeship and post completion I was very lucky that people went out of there way to congratulate me
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My training provider was very helpful. They worked with me to ensure I stayed on track and when I wasn't they supported me on a plan of action to ensure I could get back on track. There were regular 1-2-1s with PDEs and they signposted me to helpful materials to read or beneficial podcasts for when I was on the road.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
it has helped as I use the knowledge daily and often refer back to course materials. It opened my eyes into the wider business and also helped with networking opportunities.
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
Yes there are but I do not take part in any!
