Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
I perform bespoke analysis on various pipeline elements from inception to our network, processing, movement and delivery.
I build dashboards / reports from our front line and business partnering colleagues to use.
I work with 3rd party suppliers to build more strategical outputs
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
The programme is very good, particularly the live sessions. I do think that a lot of the pre-learning material that is used by QA is not good and could be improved. for instance video's talking about things that aren't on screen.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
3/5
Yes. Having never worked with Python, SQL an Power BI I found these really interesting.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Yes very well organised
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
As much as I need
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Contact with them has been great up to this point.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
My manager has already commented seeing a difference in how I approach new builds. The course is helping push me out my comfort zone making the builds smarter and a better final product.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
No
