Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

4/5

Project manager for a large international change program, focusing on the flight operations and training aspects of the business.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

2/5

It is enjoyable, although for a Master's level apprenticeship isn't too difficult. I was expecting it to be more challenging and cover some topics in more detail.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

4/5

I have learnt some good skills around strategy and financials relating to business.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

3/5

It is well structured and organised but the communication of what we have to complete and when isn't clear at times.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5

I get a lot of support from my employer when I have lecture days or an assignment upcoming.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

3/5

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

3/5

I would say the topics are good and cover a wide basis of useful content. I would like them to go into a bit more details for it to be more useful. The content seems a bit basic for MSc level.

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

2/5

Not during a pandemic. A lot of people feel very disconnected during this time. Our team do have occasional social calls which helps.
