Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I complete a high volume of tasks that vary on the day to day basis. Manly admin work such as, data entry and logging requests. Also assisting Board and Committee members with any queries whilst, managing video conferencing appointments and calendars.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I love how much I've learnt and developed since the beginning of the apprenticeship and still greatly enjoy the work I do for the organisation.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have come to learn a wide variety of skills and have progressed massively in my job role. I feel much more professional and an asset to my team's work.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
My programme is very well structured, I have had constant support from all of my colleagues since the start. I feel that the pace of the course has been laid out well and planned effectively.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My employer supports me to best of their ability, I have a line manager that is always on hand for any queries, even when working from home. My team members are also very friendly and great at assisting me and teaching me new things.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My training provider is valuable for providing me support and ensuring I know what I'm doing. My college assessor is greatly helpful with regular catch ups and friendly support to help me meet my goals.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I learn a lot through work but the supporting statements that I produce for college help to ensure I know exactly everything about that subject and increase my overall knowledge.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
There is regular sessions happening virtually and we're many more before the pandemic. I'm sure after we get back to some normality they will resume the additional activities, which there are many of.
