Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Role involves seeing different areas of the business and getting involved with the project management of key projects. On a day to day basis, I have been responsible for change management activities as well as safety engagements and managing budgets and forecasts.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I really enjoy the programme and there is a lot of variety.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Definitely. I have primarily improved my ability to engage with different stakeholders and develop relationships within the company.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very clear and organised structure.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
As much support as required.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
1/5
Lack of support from the training provider which is the only negative aspect of the course.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
1/5
I feel that more is learnt on the job and the training provider fails to link to work scenarios.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
There are good extra curricular activities to get involved in. However, there could be more available.
