Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Making sure the workshop is clean and tidy, I observe my colleagues and I get to carry out tasks whilst my colleagues give me instructions. I move vehicles around the yard and into the workshop and I also work with the parts department when we need parts for a job
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I am really enjoying my apprenticeship so far, there's so much to learn and everyone from the workshop to the office staff have been really supportive

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have developed my communication skills and I have learnt new skills such as learning to use tools and workshop equipment

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
I think the programme is very organised, which I really appreciate! we have a web-based system which tracks my progress so I always know what tasks I have to do next and how far along my qualification I am. I also like the regular contact I have with my assessor as I know I'm never on my own if I get stuck
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I receive lots of support from my colleagues, especially my manager and my mentor. I also have regular reviews and support off the company apprenticeship manager
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Lots of support off the training provider with plenty of support documents and also we were given contacts at the start of the programme which means I know who to go to if I ever need help.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
We are told how to do things the 'proper way' which means I am carrying out tasks in the workplace safely which means my colleagues trust me to carry out jobs safely
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
We always have something happening! We have a fundraiser for charity every month, we get involved with cake sales, we have food bought for us every month and we regularly have a walking / cycling challenge on the go
