I enjoyed the programme and learning new things and up skilling myself but I found it difficult to balance learning and work and home life.

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

I found support front my employer/ manager was very poor. I often had to change my calls with my tutor as I would be made to work even, I had to go to the class room sessions on my days off as manager wouldn't alow me to have it as a work day. I even had to fight to get time to sit my exams and professional discussions as my manager kept putting me on shift, I even received txt messages and calls asking me when I would be at work while I was on call doing my professional discussions.
