My Apprentice Coach, Mark, was an absolute legend. By supporting and guiding me throughout my studies, I was always looked after and was fully educated on the field of study. I managed to gain invaluable skills to which I can utilise later, as I progress in my career.

How well organised/structured is your programme?

Very organised. Coursework objectives were set from the get go, with all resources and support available on hand. A learning tracker to see how far from completing the course we were, in addition to regular check-ins with management and our Learning Coach further made this easier.
