  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • Reasonably well organised. the workplace courses that were included in our 4 year programme could be changed. some were unnecessary whilst some would be very useful if they were brought forward to earlier in the programme.

  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
  • tutors helpfulness vary. we have an on campus day once per module but i often feel like they are a missed oppertunity as i would prefer to have more one on one time with lecturer discussing the work during these days instead of lectures

  • the knowledge I have picked up on so far I can't necessarily apply to my work, however my time management has improved as i need to make sure i complete uni and workplace tasks. however some tasks push me to ask my mentor questions that benefit my knowledge
