Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learn IT skills on a number of systems, I have also learn more on commutation within teams and presenting. I have learned about my job role and how the copper network works

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
my apprenticeship is well structured, learning is not rushed and I get to work closely with people who have been here for 20 plus years. its all done at a good place and the options to learn more and more is great.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I receive a good amount of support, wither that be work related or home life.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
support has been good and bad, things could of been explained better from the beginning. mistakes made with learning structure and a lot of time wasted. minimal commutation when needing help.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
the qualification doesn't match up to my job role completely, its more customer focus when I don't deal with customers directly. but it does give a good understanding on the business and customer focus side which can only be useful 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
there's sports facilities but not many social events since covid. network events are mainly teams based so not entirely interactive.
