4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

The organisation and structure of the weekly AAT online tutor lessons are excellent, really well executed and overall structured great. Sessions always started promptly on time and and ended at the expected finish time. I never felt like we had not been able to squeeze something in or rushed through something just to get finished. The training provider has had staff shortages due to the recent pandemic however I was still able to make contact with alternative person if required.
