On a day to day basis I will with clients externally from WTW as well as working with other colleagues from WTW to provide cover on a scheme for Airside clients.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I enjoy the programme I am on as it allows me to study whilst working and I know I am going to get a qualification out of this which will help me in the near future, I like the balance of working alongside studying.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Since working at WTW this has definitely enabled me to boost my confidence, my team working skills, computer skills, allowed me to grow independently and create a wide network of people I can speak to in and outside of my work company.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Within Aerospace this is very organised and it is always ensured we have allocated time to our studies and apprenticeship work to allow us a work life balance and not overload us with tasks and a clear structure of progressing within WTW is clearly in place.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I feel I know I can always reach out to different people within WTW for any questions I have or if I am struggling with work and have never felt like I am not sure what to do or how to resolve an issue I am encountering.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My training provider puts in regular sessions to catch up with me, some being more formal than others, regarding my progress and ensures I am on track but does not push me too far and ensures I am balancing time between work and apprenticeship tasks.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
There has been a lot of times where I realised I have learnt different skills and knowledge from my training provider that I have been able to use within my role, whether this be terminology or a way in which to approach clients or people within WTW.
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 has been many networking activities within WTW, whether this be a lunch and learn or social drinks after work, I have definitely been able to widen my network through these and been able to meet a lot of new people through this which I may not have done otherwise.
