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

    • My programme is relatively well structured. The sessions in London are well structured however it is disappointing that more than 50% of training sessions are now done by Teams. The Level 2 programme was originally supposed to take 1 year however we did not end up moving onto the level 4 course for 18 months. The entire programme which was originally supposed to be a 13 month programme and then an 18 month programme but will likely take over 3 years. Aside from this the sessions and programme is well organised.
