Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
My programme is well organised as my studies line up with the work i am doing at my workplace which is good as it keeps me concentrated on one topic at a time and one aspect of my learning.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
The support I receive from my employer is great as he is always checking up on me to make sure i am understanding the jobs i am working on and any time i need help he is there to help.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I receive a lot of support towards my qualifications by sitting down and talking about the pathway and the best ways to tackle problems i may come across.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
The qualification i am working on helps me perform better as the topics I am learning align with the work i am doing at my workplace so they both help with each other.
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
We have monthly work get togethers where we go out for a meal or do a fun activity and have a work social every three months which is good as it helps build friendships instead of just having colleagues.
