Overview of Role

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

4/5

I work within Design, but specifically in the Model shop. I work on prototype models using a variety of materials. We do this to create 3D drawings and designs a reality.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

4/5

The program is great, it is best suited to the way I learn new information, through hands on experiences to class room work as well. Thoroughly enjoy coming to work.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

4/5

Many new skills, from communication to budgeting outside of the workshop but also new craftmanship skills within the workshop.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

4/5

Well organised through both college and work, the two communicate with each other through WBLM (Work Based Learning Mangers) to ensure that everything is being done to ensure a smooth transition in and out of work/ college.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

4/5

As much as we require, we just have to ask.

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

4/5

Teachers and staff were very helpful and knowledgeable when in college, any questions were answered quickly and any issues with work or deadlines they did their best to help.

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

4/5

The training I receive through work and college have set me up in the best way to start my role. I have a great general engineering overview from college and through work I learn more job specific skills.
