> General communication with clients

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5

I have enjoyed the programme a lot as of my first full year in Savills. It has provided me with a greater understanding of the property industry than I thought I would have at this moment in time.

Skills Development

4/5

See below
> Excel skills have developed
> Powerpoint skills have developed
> The ability to communicate with an array of people
> Meeting clients
> Becoming more professional

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

5/5

Programme is very well structured, constantly having meetings with the UCEM Officers and line managers check up on both uni and work tasks.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

4/5

Savills provide lots of support whether it is with both uni or work. The My Learning site is very useful for this.

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

5/5

I receive a sufficient amount of support my line manager has always offered to read my assignments before submission to make sure they are to the highest standard possible

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

5/5

It provides you with a basic understanding of the essential elements in the industry.

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 constantly networking drinks, due to the lack of apprentices in Savills at the moment in comparison to the graduate programme the apprentices tend to join the graduates.
