  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I really enjoy my programme so far with merchandising as this is something i was scared to learn as i'm not great with numbers and that's all i thought it was. But i grew to enjoy it and find it interesting as my product i was planning was Bags which was fun and a low lead time product which meant i am able to get to know the product i am planning. The programme gives us the time to learn as well as work.
