Yes i have learnt lots of new skills some are: Active Listening. Adaptability. Communication. Creativity. Critical Thinking. Customer Service. Decision Making. Interpersonal Communication.
I really enjoy my programme and it gives me a lot of opportunities to further my experience and skill set outside of my programme capabilities. I would and ahve recommended it to others.

From my team and my manager i receive a lot of support and they are very good at understanding i need my 20% off the job time to study. HR have had limited involvement and i feel they should and could be more involved.
