  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I have found the course lessons themselves to not be a problem. I've learned many thing on the course and developed understanding. I have, however, not enjoyed many aspects of the poor organisational ability of the provider. There have been number of areas that haven't been coordinated well, and this has soured the experience.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • I have been frustrated on numbers of occasions with the apprenticeship programme provider. I've been placed on the wrong course 2 times, not sent any books 3 times, took 5 months to get a tutor, and because of the delays been given the wrong start which meant I couldn't claim an entire section of my course on the OTJ Training Record. I was also told this couldn't be changed, even though this makes no logical sense. Aside from this, the course itself (once I was on it) hasn't been a problem.

  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
  • In terms of the course itself, the training has been very good. The tutors have been knowledgeable, and there is definitely the accessibility to support when required. When I have had queries, the team have been able to assist without issue, and they have done so promptly. Happy with the support.

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • The course has taught fundamentals that have assisted me in fulfilling my role on a more thorough basis as I have gained the underlying knowledge that pieces the role together. I have regularly been faced with tasks that have been made easier because of the skills gained on the course.

  • 9a. Would you recommend IMMI to a friend?
