7/10

3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I'd say I am quite nuetral on this. The service from the training provider for the most part was good. The support I received whilst in work was sub-par

5/10

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

Fairly well organised, but needs to be understood that some elements of work can not be done to exact deadlines if the work being done does not match the requirements of the individual peices of work

7/10

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

A little bit mostly to do with what I am working on rather than my apprenticeship overall. I was given time to be able to finish my portfolio peices to make sure that these were in before the deadline

7/10

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

The support I have been provided from my individual tutor was fantasti, the provider overall was hit and miss and didn't always understand me and my needs

7/10

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

It will help me to better perform my role outside of the group as how Lloyds works doesn't map towards the qualification and what we learn all of the time

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.)

Professaional networking events twice a year, no further activities other than this
