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

    • Very well organised from the perceptive of Crowe, it wasn't the best from Kaplan, I think I had more than 5 "talent coaches" dedicated to me over the three years as the staff kept leaving. Luckily the talent coach I was assigned at the end was very helpful.

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

    • A decent amount, I had several talent coaches over the course of the program which didn't help. Luckily the talent coach I had at the end was very helpful and informative and helped me through the end point assesment.
