1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I assist the management accountant with the month end process. Complete composites, balance sheet recs, standard journals as well as other adhoc tasks.

8/10

2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

I have learnt a few new skills and more about myself since doing the course.

7/10

3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I have mixed reviews of the enjoyment of this course so far. There is little in the way of interaction and a lot of what is on the course seems to be common sense so the amount i learn in the 4 hour call once a month could easily be condensed into an hour or two.

5/10

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

I don't think the course is well structured, we seem to get a flurry of emails with things that need doing rather than a structured plan or to do list for each module. I think a full list of tasks that need doing that we could go in and tick off as and when complete would be an easier way of keeping on top of tasks.

5/10

5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

My boss is supportive of my course and allows me to complete tasks when needed.

9/10

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

I think it is very hard to get support on things in between calls.

6/10

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

I think the things i have learnt will help me in the future with managing people.

7/10

8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Other than year end and Christmas parties, not really.
