Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I work daily on a project which involves reporting of what occurs on a weekly and monthly basis on the project. Along with looking at key enablers and key milestones for the project. One day a week I will focus on doing my uni work.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
The programme is very enjoyable and everyone around is very supportive and friendly which makes the experience better.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have learnt many new skills as it is an industry I had never experienced before. I have developed my social skills significantly.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
The programme has a clear structure and has been very easy to follow and take part in due to the support provided.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
There is a massive amount of support which is very accessible through the HR team, colleagues, "buddys" and your line manager. Everyone is always open to help.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My training provider is also very supportive as they have a good support team and again alot of people who are accessible and willing to help.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
The uni work is linked to daily work of being in construction and provides greater knowledge that you need to help put theory into practice.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
There are days where you can volunteer. There are alot of social after work events to attend. There are many networks within the business for people to join and discuss topics they enjoy and believe in.
