Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Doing general admin, sitting in on meetings with my line manager and completing projects i have been given to manage myself.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I would say i enjoy my programme fairly well.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have developed on my existing skills on programmes such as Microsoft Excel, as well as learning new skills through training on different softwares that Kier uses.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
I think that my programme could do with a little more organisation in the structure, but it is still manageable so it isn't a major concern for me.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
As much as i need
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I can contact my tutor whenever i need help, and he tends to reply fairly quickly as well as offering help with tasks i don't completely understand.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I can't say that i have necessarily used anything that i have learnt in my day to day role just yet, but i have only been on the course for two months so this may change in the future.
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 that i know of.
