Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I start my day by giving the workshop a tidy up and cleaning the floors with the floor cleaner. I then go to my mentor and assist him in the task he is doing. i will work with him most of the day unless another job has arised for me such as an mot wash or giving someone a lift to collect a vehicle.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
i am really enjoying my programme. My college dates should be in soon for the start of the next semester in September. i get on well with everyone in my workshop and my managers. i am excited to see what can happen in the future with my career and apprenticeship.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
i am learning new skills everyday when my mentor teaches me different ways to do certain jobs and tells me what to work on and how to do it better. My existing skills are also improving all the time as i get quicker at jobs i do often while still being completed to the best standard possible.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
my programme seems to be well structured. I get frequent emails from my training providers for different forums and my skills coach comes into my workplace often to check up on me and give me some more tasks for the next visit. he also makes sure everything is okay in the workshop.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
my employer is good when it comes to support. if there is any problems i have i know they will help to the best of their ability. my manager is very understanding of everything and checks up on everyone every week. i am happy with the level of support i get from my employer.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
my training provider seems to be very good with support. there is a whatsapp group with one of my training coaches and other apprentices where everyone can ask questions and learn about anything to do with their courses. i can also email them privately if there is any problems or issues.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
i feel my qualification will help me a lot as when i am qualified i will be able to take on any job required of me and be able to give it my best shot with the knowledge and skills i have gained from my training course and my workplace
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
