  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I am very new to the program and so far we have been learning how to set goals and develop skills. I have never been great at writing goals so i feel this has really helped me to teach me how to reflect on my own skills and write realistic goals for what i want to achieve

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I have really enjoyed the programme so far. The college are really supportive and have helped alot when i have had queries. I found onefile quite hard to use initially as i was learning remotely. I have enjoyed learning again as an adult and taking the time to reflect on the skills i already have which can help to support me
