Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Co-ordination of the companies apprenticeship programmes, supporting with the logistics around running multiple programmes for different business units
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
The programme is quite hard going at times but overall I am really enjoying it. Every so often I come across something at work and have a lightbulb moment and recall covering something similar on the course
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
My apprenticeship gave me a fantastic insight into process improvement, data analysis and risk management. But the biggest skill change was with my communication, doing this apprenticeship really brought me out of my shell and whilst previously I was quite an introvert I am now confident in holding workshops
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
The provider are incredibly well organised, learning is planned out for the year with regular one to one sessions with the tutor
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
My employer is very supportive, not only making sure I have time to attend the programme and achieve my 20% off the job target but also making sure to be mindful of my welfare
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
They are great with this, a good mix of scheduled learning with regular one to one session and the tutor is just an email away with an answer to any queries
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
This qualification is an expansion on a previous programme I have completed and supplements the learning well. My current course ha quite a focus on using data to drive change which works quite well with our business strategy
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
Constantly, our business is quite geared towards supporting colleagues achieve in all aspects of their lives. We have regular yoga sessions, we work with local schools to get the kids career ready and we run initiatives to support people to volunteer in their local community
