I received alot of support from my employer but sometimes wasn't staff on when I needed to be taken off the floor to have a chat with my coach which meant it was rushed and had to be taken in my own time or on my day off.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
[This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the Higherin Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] was absolutely amazing. Even when my confidence dropped and I thought I couldn't complete certain modules she pushed me to carry on and saw that I completed them on time and made me feel confident in doing so.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
