3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I favour my day to day job role over the studying element of my programme but there are things in place to improve content delivery. i find the workshops quite hard to endure and prefer to learn by watching recorded sessions at a later date. I am enjoying being part of my team and my role though.
