Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
On a day to day basis i assist my colleagues in running refurbishment projects in the city of london. This involves attending sites for inspections and meetings, at meetings i will input as required and take minutes. I will then manage the actions following on from the meeting to ensure the project runs efficiently and successfully.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I thoroughly enjoy my programme, it is challenging and i feel as though i have developed skills that a standard university degree would not teach.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I believe my people skills have developed well as well as feeling more comfortable in a meeting environment. I have learnt a large amount with regard to building surveying practices aswell as contracts used in the construction industry.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
The structure and organisation is very much down to the individual. My aim is to maintain good structure to my learning in order to achieve the best results possible.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I receive as much support as i require. No question feels silly and whenever necessary i feel as though i can talk openly with those around me.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
The support from my training provider could be improved. They are rather hands off which is good in lots of ways however can cause issues with motivation i find.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
My qualification is very important for my role. I require a degree to become a chartered surveyor.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
