My training provides are very good with the amount of support they offer , they are always making sure we are happy with how we are being taught and also offer us extra support if necessary

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

Without my training provider I would not have learnt the skills or passed the exams needed for my job role , they do a great job at making sure we are prepared enough for when we go back to our employment.
