Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I have been fortunate enough to have been supported by my Manager and NHFT to undertake an apprenticeship in leadership and management, which has led to me getting more managerial experience and responsibilities. The tutors at college and been of fantastic support and currently helping me to achieve the necessary standards for the end point assessment.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

Whilst working full time and completing the work to go with this apprenticeship, along with COVID, has been challenging, the programme also had to evolve due to COVID, the college did everything in their power to ensure that learning wasn't interrupted. The tutors and other apprentices have made it an enjoyable experience, and made me excited to develop new skills and gain new knowledge.
