  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I have learnt lots of new Skills regarding how to behave in a business environment both in the office and externally, I came into the role with no technical insurance knowledge and have therefore built on that to a huge extent. I have also learnt how to communicate and build relationships with both internal and external colleagues and clients.

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I enjoy my programme and learning new skills however I feel like I have had to create opportunities for myself to develop rather than have a clear working path. I do not feel that I am remunerated properly for the role and work I was doing towards the end of my programme

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The qualification learning was well structured with monthly catch - ups and revision sessions with the training provider. however the learning in my day to day role was rather unorganised and there wasn't a clear development path. I was forced to scout out my own training sessions to attend to better my knowledge and I found myself completing lots of admin tasks for the majority of the programme which did not really improve me as an employee.
