  • My knowledge around business continuity and risk has substantially increased. I had the opportunity to complete an external course in business continuity and now have a qualification in the subject. Soft skills I have developed include: professionalism, confidence, time management. My project management skills have drastically improved by scheduling and delivering exercise programmes under tight timelines.
