3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

The programme is highly enioyable

10/10

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

There are times when nobody seems to know what is going on or incorrect information is provided. When taught as part of the apprentice class and not with the full time students, it is highly structured. This is diminished somewhat when taught with full timers.

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

Highly supportive

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

This again is dependent on whether we are taught with the full time students. Lecturers are more supportive with smaller classes
