worklife has been well structured and plenty to do. the course itself has been a mess, lack of direction, lack of clarity and total unprofessionalism displayed by educators from the college and city and guilds

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

1/5

Any support given from training providers has been slow, incorrect, confusing

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

1/5

if the course was actually tailored to what is actually done in the workplace it would 5 months long and not 18. Large elements of the course have been totally useless
