Learned a lot more in relation to government legislation and how this impacts company policy and procedures
I had a very supportive tutor, always on the end of the phone if I needed her and able to 'bounce off' ideas. The bud system was easy to use too.
Almost too structured, there were times that I could have gotten on with more work but had to wait to submit in relation to funding. In the remit there are less busy periods that could've counteracted the more busy busy periods.
My line manager and learning manager have been very supportive throughout and especially at EPA .

For the sense of achievement that you get from turning a child's life around, the support and benefits the company offers and the £500 bonus if a friend passes the 6 month probation
That you have to understand that the remit is a lifestyle and not just a job.
