Overview of Role

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

4/5

Fitting and maintaining mechanical systems within Faslane.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

4/5

I enjoy the fact I have learned so much in a short space of time and can see the progression I have made since I started.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

4/5

Learned an array of skills in terms of using tools and equipment, problem solving in engineering and how different systems work.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

4/5

The programme is well organised with a clear structure of who to contact when help and advice is required. Also monthly tasks are set which gives a clear path of progression.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

4/5

All the support I need. Whether it is time to do coursework or a chance to change rolls temporarily to gather different evidence.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

4/5

I am given a great amount of support that gives me the confidence to carry out new parts of training and learning on my own initiative.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

4/5

The qualification gives me a theoretical background of how systems should work in an ideal world and a general understanding so that I am not going into tasks in work blind.
