2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

I discovered how important tone of voice and understanding are when dealing with conflicts. My problem-solving skills improved a lot by handling complaints methodically. My manager's advice really helped me get better at both sales and customer interactions. my communication has improved as well giving me a boost in my role

3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

At first, dealing with customer complaints made me pretty nervous - I was worried I might make things worse. But once I got the hang of connecting with customers and showing understanding, my confidence really grew. I became much better at staying calm and working through problems and really enjoy the journey of helping customers.

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

My learning took place through one-to-one sessions with my on-site tutor and virtual learning with another tutor. This involved both in-person sessions at my workplace and remote learning from home. I believe the programme is structured well and the length of it is good aswell.
