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

    • Lots, I struggled to get time doing coursework at the beginning due to high demand in student office but then moved over to finance and got a lot of work done and caught up. They were always happy to provide me with the time to do my assignments and showed me how to access policies and procedures of the school.
