Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I work in Learning and development so on any given day I may be facilitating training, coaching individuals or teams, designing learning solutions, communicating our L&D offering or connecting with the business to understand their needs.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
The L7 apprenticeship has been challenging in a good way! It can be hard to balance with the day job, but the support from Nestle and from my Line Manager has been fantastic!
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Completing the apprenticeship has supported me in stepping up to a more senior role. It’s encouraged me to be more strategic in my thinking and consider how I partner with the business and my stakeholders to make a difference.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
My programme is very well structured so I always know where I am and what to expect
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
The support from our apprenticeship Manager, my Line Manager and other colleagues also going through the same programme has been fantastic!
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
There wasn’t a lot of support at the start but 5 months in and now I have a mentor through my training provider who I connect with regularly, a live class for each module and a team I can go to with queries.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
The qualification is stretching me to think more strategically and apply that in my day job.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Numerous networks including things like Mental Health champions, Nestle Pride etc.
