Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Working with architects and engineers on the design of large building projects, coordinating the electrical design in and around the site.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
Although the course has been difficult due to Covid, my team has been very accommodating and I have been able to navigate it well
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have worked with a fantastic team which push the boat using the most modern computer design and sumbmissions
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
The Course is made up of several different modules which can be confusing and daunting at first but you come to terms with it and once you settle into it, it becomes a lot easier
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My team is very understanding and helps me work my time and projects around the needs for my course.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Uwe has a course leader and leaders for each module which help to manage the different parts of the qualifications.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
The course starts off teaching general skills and then becomes specific to your field in the third year for the first two years you learn skills which help generally with your role but the work you do is lead by my team
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
due to covid there are less activities to be invloved in, but Motts puts in a great effort to make sure there are meetings and training to socialise. Under normal circumstances there are lots of activities such as sports and clubs and everyone goes out for a drink at the end of the month paid for by the company.
