Yes, coming from a very different background I have learned many new skills. In particular the use of design softwares including autoCAD and Revit. As well as developing soft skills like my presentation and communication skills.

Structure and Support

4/5

My company has structured the programme well, however with the training provider additionally it is currently slightly confusing. There is a lot of different people to report to and I then sometimes feel confused as to who I should be communicating with depending on the situation at hand.

I have receiver a lot of support from my employer and fellow employees. Helping with my work along with giving support for my college work and everyone is always happy to help.

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

1/5

So far (6months) my training provider has changed due to illness so I have not received much support.

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

3/5

I think it helps me raise awareness to the aspects I need to improve upon, particularly soft skills. However, so far it hasn’t hugely helped with the technical aspects of my 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.)

3/5

There are regular social events every few months and plenty of invites to external networking events.
