To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I think the programme is good

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
The placement side is good, the university side not so much
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
I receive a lot of support from placement. I think more support could have been given from early careers
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
1/5
We have consistently found issues with the training provider, for example with our latest exam we were told to answer questions based on a case study that they had not attached to the exam. As we were on a tight time constraint this effected everyone's grades negatively. The training provider did nothing to rectify this issue.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I have better understanding around project management
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
There are lots of 'stretch' opportunities within my business that we are encouraged to take part in.
