Any support I need, I am given with regards to academic support or personal support which I think is great.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

It provides me with good background knowledge in electronics so that when I move into the workplace, I'm not going in blind.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

We had a team-building day at the beginning of the apprenticeship, however, due to COVID-19 restrictions, this has become almost impossible.
