5/5
Yes, I have developed a range of new skills and strengthened existing ones, particularly in communication, stakeholder collaboration, attention to detail, and using Microsoft tools. I have also gained a stronger understanding of business processes and built confidence in working independently and contributing to team objectives.

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

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
Yes, there are a range of extra‑curricular activities available at work, including social events, employee resource groups, networking opportunities, and wellbeing initiatives, which allow employees to connect, collaborate, and develop professionally outside of their day‑to‑day roles.
