Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?

My overall program is structure very well. I work 4 days and study one day. The online class's happen every two weeks, which gives you a week to read up on all your reading material but also revise from your previous lesson .

I receive a lot of support from my employer. My line manager is very helpful and makes sure that my needs are met academically as well as with my work.

I receive adequate support from my training provider. Would like more support going forward.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It helps me understand my role in the IT world better. Concepts are really important in IT as they allow you to have grasp of the fundamentals but also allows you to have a clearer image in your head.
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 are some activates to take part in but i have not done any so far.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend NatWest Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
At NatWest I have grown soo much in such a short space of time. I have mastered skill sets that used to terrify me such as public speaking to a group. I think that growth happens in multiple forms and NatWest helps you as an apprentice hit those peaks much sooner.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to NatWest Group?
Be Confident, as well as put in the work in your spare time is essential. Make sure to do the reading material provided, as it will really help with your next lesson.
