Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Tendering as a BAU activity and I am beginning to take on projects to manage.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I enjoy my programme very much, I am excited to work.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Management skills, and other skills such as communication, timekeeping, teamwork, etc. have all been developed.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well organized with a lot of thought behind our placements in terms of the what we will be doing and who can support us.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
As much support as I require, this is offered without asking and more help can be given whenever I may need this. This is from both peers and figures directly supporting my development.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Lots of support, they are very accommodating and any requests I have they will seek to meet.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
It is very linked with more training offering alternate perspectives on project management and using these skills within projects to excel in my role. It works both ways.
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
Football for one that I am part of myself. There are many more but this is what I am involved with directly. I have also been on professional networking events.
