Workforce Development Advisor Review

I am responsible for a team of administrative support staff and set their objectives. I provide regular one to ones, appraisals and set direction of tasks.
I am responsible for a number of systems including data analysis, performance management of the systems in order for the organisation to support efficient and productive working practices. These support the workforce and provide evidence to external stakeholders.

I find the tutor has provided useful advise around the structure of the programme but sometimes I am confused as to why we do not use the Apprenticeship Standard to guide the learning and assignments.
This is also reported by peers when we have group discussions where we share ideas.

I am exceptionally lucky that my line manager supports and helps guide me when I ask for advice or help when I am struggling or just feel a little lost in the assignment description.
We discuss the bigger picture in relation to opportunities I have been given in order to achieve the work experience. This then helps produce the final document.

I receive one to one support and guidance from my training provider. I am guided in how to think about the uses of models and theories that have been taught as part of the module and the overall programme.
He is also very good at providing pastoral care and signposting.

The qualification so far has made me think differently and more strategically when producing my work. Having gained 98% in self reflection I feel that I have set myself to a gold start and this provides me with the motivation to continue to achieve this regularly.
My performance has improved in technologies.

Yes
