5/5
I receive so much support from my employer, from college, work and even anything personal they make sure that i am well and okay, which i appreciate.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
I don't receive much support from my training provider, i have five different subjects, which are an hour long each, but for about 45 minutes, they explain the task and then expect us to finish it in 15 minutes. Then we have a hour at the end for catch up but they don't really help me if i have a problem.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
In college we don't really learn about anything that is to do with working in engineering/electrical.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
