Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

5/5

when in the training centre you will be taught by highly experienced instructors who give you a very good understanding on different courses your learning and the basics you need to know. when on your tools on a job your working with individuals who have experience, learning the hand tools

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5

i enjoy the programme very much however i do feel that there's a lack of communication at some stages when you've got courses as such.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5

yes i came into the apprenticeship not really knowing massive amount but had a big interest, i have learnt many new things that i will take on a day to day life.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

3/5

I feel its very structured, you get enough time to revise for exams however when you have the course it can get changed last minute which I don't think is great because you've worked holiday round it, you don't get told directly when courses have been cancelled.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5

you receive so much support and i feel comfortable going to my line manager with any problem i have or something i don't agree with. on the businesses intranet there is so much support with mental health and youve got occupational health on site you can see too.

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

5/5

you get given more than enough support to get what you need and anything you find difficult they are more than happy to go over it more than once with you.

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

5/5

i feel alot more as you have more of an understanding than you did before and you know why you can do things certain ways and more reason behind things.

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 is events like pay day social and other things outside of work you can do that will get emailed to you,.

Would you recommend BAE Systems to a friend?

Yes
