Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Shadowing operators of machinery and assisting engineers when ever possible. Carry out engineering tasks during annual planned maintenance.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
Massively, I enjoy working for Britvic very much and feel incredibly lucky.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Working for Britvic has massively improved my fabricating skills, in general my knowledge on the production process and engineering improves as there is something new to learn every day.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
My programme is well organised.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Plenty, I always feel that I am listened to when I raise a problem.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
Some tutors offer lots of support and others make college incredibly difficult by providing a lack of support.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I think the college qualification is relevant however some of the practices aren't suited for what I do in work. For example, one unit spends a lot of time soldering which is something we don't do on site.
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
There are activities available but I don't attend any because I'm usually busy.
