  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
  • London South Bank University offers subpar teaching and at times a hostile learning environment. Aside from 1-2 lecturers who will go above and beyond to offer support, the University is not fit for purpose. That being said, the teachers who are actually on the apprenticeship team that have our progress reviews and help us reach our EPA gateway are extremely helpful with working towards our qualifications. The problem lies with most module lecturers.
