Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I am responsible for the development of Leaders and Managers in the business as well as supporting talent. My day to day role varies from created and developing programmes, formal and informal coaching, supporting others
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
Quite new into it, but lots of information to enhance my skills, remind of past skills and introduce new skills. It's currently all online which makes it a bit easier due to the business of my role. It also fits with my learning strategy.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Yes, always learning new or developing skills, this may be planned or situational. In the current climate it is getting a balance of pro and re-active learning.

4/5
We are told dates in advance, and the information we need is readily available and there is the right amount of communications.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

My employers have been fully supportive of the apprenticeship. They recognise the impact it can have on the business. I get time to do the work and have opportunities to discuss my learnings with my manager
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I feel I am getting the right amount of support. Plenty of guidance and information. The OCM are quick to answer any emails or questions
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I am able to put into practice what I've learned in live situations and support the development of key people in the business. It's a win/win for the business.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Not currently during the pandemic, but there is a culture of supporting each other through technology.
