Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Shadowing my mentor carrying out servicing, repairs and diagnostics. I also take vehicles for MOT and sometimes I have to go out and get parts too. I also have a responsibility to make sure the workshop is clean and tidy at the start of every shift.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I thoroughly enjoy working at Motus in my apprenticeship role as I have a great team around me who support and encourage me to be the best I can
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I’ve learnt so much more in my first 3 months than I thought I would, I can now carry out a service with little help, I’ve developed my team work skills and I’ve also learnt how to use tools that I didn’t even know existed before my apprenticeship!
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Due to COVID the college side of the apprenticeship is a bit up in the air but that’s fully understandable. I find Remit very on the ball when it comes to completing documents/ assignments etc.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Although I may not speak to management very often due to working for a big company, they bring themselves across as very approachable so I know if I did have an issue I feel very confident getting in touch with them
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My Remit assessor regularly checks in with me to make sure everything is going well and that I’m on track with assignments
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
This qualification has highlighted the importance of organisation and making sure paperwork is completed to the highest standard. It also highlights the importance of safety in the workplace
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’s always something happening in Motus: wear red day, we were sent pancakes for pancake day, we have a walking challenge going on at the moment and we also have access to mindfulness yoga
Recommendations & Advice
