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

I have a more rounded and thoughtful approach to everything I do, rather than just replicating what I've seen or done in the company before. I feel more capable, motivated and professional as a result.

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.)

Not really. Some social events take place to mark project closure milestones, but this is dependent upon the styles of the individual project managers and each team.
