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

When i contact them i do get response fairly quickly. But seem to get more feedback from colleagues in my team

9/10

7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

I dont think i would have learnt different techniques without the course. This is something you can learn on the job but it would take much longer

9/10

8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

We have a great team and we do get in touch weekly via zoom to make sure everyone is doing okay. I am lucky that a couple of my team live locally and we can meet up

9/10

9a. Would you recommend Realise to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

Because it is a great company to be a part of. The team support is next to none and i have been made to feel like a member of the team from day one.

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Realise?

Take plenty of notes and dont be afraid to ask questions.
