Business Administration Apprentice Review

Taking on Admin type roles. Using programmes like SAP, Power Bi and SharePoint to help price anything thats missing. And to help build contracts for new or existing customers. Regularly answering emails and phone calls from team members and liaising with my fellow apprenticeship friends in the same cohort as me.

Id say the programme is structured very well from the business side of things however, from the college side it isnt structured well at all. College days are not consistent and neither are the masterclass days where we are told to complete assignments. It is hard for us to tell our managers whtat days we have college because they are never on the same day. we dont get taught the basics of business in our lessons either.

Id say the support from our employer is consistent. Even though my training manager works half of the week, job sharing with another employee, i receive great support. I am reassured that problems are going to be fixed if i am not enjoying my placement. They are also there if i have any issues going on at home and are very supportive.

Not a lot at all. When stuck on certain topics of business we are told to read the textbook instead of being taught it in person. We are essentially teaching ourselves and the college dont seem to be doing anything about it which is a shame. No matter how many times we complain to the college nothing gets done.

I dont feel that being taught in college is helping me perform my role better at all. If anything we are all tecahing each other in the cohort because there is no support. This will have an effect on our end grades because we wouldnt have learnt anything. Something needs to be done.

Yes

Leonardo is a great business to get an apprenticeship in. Every team that you join is appreciative towards you and feel that apprentices help massively with the company. The support from traning is great and everyday is different work-wise. Everyday is also very busy and you learn something new all the time.
