I enjoy my job role but not the apprenticeship and degree side

Yes I have gone from being an entry in the industry to being highly skilled
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
I am in uni one day a week and working 4 days a week which would work well but there is too much time required to be dedicated to university outside of this one day
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My employers are very flexible
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
We are given too tight deadlines and not enough time during the dedicated university day to complete work - more coursework's over exams has lead to longer periods spent on university work.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
I feel like my qualification does not cover current industry practices
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
