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

As a developer, I build proof of concepts for cloud applications alongside my team. This involves understanding application requirements, researching and writing code to bring applications from concept to reality.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

The program certainly meets my expectations. Personally, I've found the work aspect of the apprenticeship more exciting than the university aspect.

5/5
The learning opportunities on the apprenticeship are endless. I've completed a lot of professional training and this training has helped advance my performance capabilities in my role.

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
The program is generally well organised, both university and work.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

There's a lot of support offered from the employer and partnering university. From Mentors to Career Counselors, and also a lot of opportunities for gaining peer support from school mates and colleagues.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Accenture very much supports the professional growth of its employees, so time off is offered when you're undertaking a professional qualification, and often times, they're also willing to fund your professional training.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
The university aspect of the apprenticeship has definitely helped me perform better in my role and vice versa.
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 a great deal of extra-curricular activities to get involved in with Accenture (think cultural clubs, sports clubs, religious clubs etc.).
