  • 5. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The structure is ok, but there is room for improvement. The induction was very good as we managed to meet all the degree apprentices and I felt it was really good ice breaker. I feel like I need more time to study as the degree is quite challenging and to also balance it with work is challenging.
