5. How well organised/structured is your programme?

My programme is very well structured. the induction was fun but informative. with plenty of opportunity to get to know our colleagues and make new friendships. The eight week training course was brilliant. it gave us the opportunity to start learning or developing on coding languages that we could use in our jobs and it also gave the experience of working in a team and managing our own project.
