    2/10
  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

    • Very poor, I have had a really bad experience so far. I am dyslexic so my struggle has been felt to a greater extent than my peers. my whole group have had a bad experience. very poorly organised, bad communication, poor resources to work from. I consider myself a life learner but this has really put my off any further study.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • As above- extremely poorly. Kaplan sent the incorrect dates out for workshops resulting in missed learning away days, unclear timeline and late delivery of material. We had to have a group call with rsa and Kaplan to feedback all the issue -its been that bad. I failed my exam and since found a study guide from the official examiner which I didn't know prior to the exam was available. This is VERY different to the material I received from the training group and far FAR superior and the official guide directly contradicts the sample guide from Kaplan.

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

    • Support? I got sent subpar training material and that's it. My "expert coach" wasn't contactable for questions. its been a joke!

    1/10
  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

    • non at all. it is the official APM guide which has taught me that I found after the exam fail
