    7/10

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • The program is fine but inappropriate to my career and a waste of my time.

    3/10

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • Well organised and structured around the course objectives

    8/10

  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • When raising issues beyond those that are easily solved, I get no response or the response is extremely slow and requires chasing. The employee assistance programme is also good.

  • Help is readily provided whenever I ask for it.

    10/10

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