  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

    • It is good, but there is a lot of work just to get it completed and some of the questions can be quite repetitive

    7/10
  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • They break it down so it’s easy enough to follow

    8/10
  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

    • I only get 1 day a month to get my course done with my company so I spend most of my days off working on it

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

    • Whenever I need help I can always email and I usually get a response in a day or two. At first it was hard to get help as they kept changing my trainer, but I’ve had the same one for the last 6months
