  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • My employer have been fantastic throughout the programme, I am able to take days for revision for the examinations and days for the actual exam. Along with work hours to be able to go through work that is required so not all is required to be done in my own time. I have received support and praise when I have passed the examinations and this qualification is seen as a help when going for other roles within RSA. RSA have also allowed time away when required for coach meetings,
