4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

The workplace is very structured to help with my learning. the majority of the college was structured just the one off week for the end of year 2 gateway was shocking. that is the only time it has been shambles. the Fuse training isn't helpful in the slightest

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

The support while in the college is amazing, but with the off the job training during work times the FUSE was amazing when it was the interactive pages, but now with the PowerPoints and the videos it isn't as engaging as it could be.
