Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

5/5

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5

I’ve completed a ‘traditional’ degree in sport science and this current degree apprenticeship I’ve found far more valuable

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

3/5

How much support do you receive from your employer?

2/5

I feel my employer could take more of an interest in what I am learning and how to utilise this within the business and the skills I’ve learnt.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

5/5

ARU have been superb and supported me in pursuing opportunities to assist my personal development outside of my course across the faculty.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

2/5

Currently I feel what I am learning would be better used in a different role. However, I have still benefited in my current role.

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

1/5

There are no opportunities within the workplace.

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend The Co-op to a friend?

Why?

There are very limited progressional opportunities and I have been prevented from applying for roles previously. I am grateful to Co-op for providing this opportunity, however they have expressed no desire to utilise the skills I’ve gained more widely within the organisation.
