Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
This would be to attend meetings within my calendar and be the spokesperson from the Accounting Division, add input within meetings but also to create comms/learning services and update the wider team of any key information. Creating CVP's, timelines and GTM playbooks
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I enjoy the role, the apprenticeship is enjoyable however, as someone who has a degree and Master's I feel that im re-doing my degree,when in fact I learn more within the role itself.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learnt to become more confident within myself, ask key questions and knowing how to create one pagers. I also was given the opportunity to undertake a 10 week bootcamp training session.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
It is fairly organised, i can see what is coming up etc. I meet with other apprentices once a week who don't work at my company but are on the same course as myself along with my tutor, and i have a monthly 1-1 tutorial with my tutor.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
a fair amount. To be honest they allow me the time to do my learning without pressuring me to commit to a lot of tasks/projects etc.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
a lot.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
not too much to be honest. Every now and then it does inspire you.
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
we do hold events, webinars that I am free to attend and have attended as well as be invited to hold annual events such as Accountex
