Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I am responsible for the production and upkeep of reports for a range of clients. I will also complete some apprenticeship work each day in order to keep on top of it.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I love almost all of it, occasionally a stubborn error will annoy me but 90% of the time I enjoy my time at work
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes. I have learnt Power BI and developed my SQL and Excel skills as well as my communication skills too
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very, I always know what I need to do to stay on target and if I have any questions I can email my Learning Mentor at Firebrand and they will get back to me with the answers
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Quite a bit. My line manager is always able to help, and my colleagues are always willing to assist or answer any questions I may have too
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Plenty. I have a monthly meeting with my learning mentor where we discuss any problems I am having and I can email him at any time with other questions I have about my apprenticeship work
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
Quite a bit, it helps to fill in the gaps in my knowledge and to build the steps to success a lot quicker than just being thrown in the deep end so to speak.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
There are, since starting 6 months ago I have gone to multiple networking events, either with my team or with the other apprentices in the Ipswich office
