  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

All tutors and representatives are happy to help but I think the way we are taught could be improved to be more interactive rather than talking at us would make a big difference as personally im not an academic person so more interactive learning would be ore enjoyable.
