Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My day to day includes submitting invoices onto our subcontract management. I am in charge of the sign in sheet for employees and visitors, I also chase our guys for their HAVi sheets, for me to upload onto our database. I also keep charge of the first aid boxes, burns box and eye wash stations.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I enjoy it. There is something different everyday. No two days are the same. I am hoping to go on to Permitting,

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes, i have learnt how to properly use an excel spreadsheet with formulas, I have created my own, that is used for our HAVi information. My speaking and listening skills have come on leaps and bounds.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
From Tarmac, it's perfect they have done all they can. It's the college that is bad, no communication, poor management
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I receive a lot of support from my employer
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
1/5
Not a lot from Sheffield College
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It has shown me that even just sending an email you always have to think, does it breach GDPR? etc. Something i wouldn't usually think of
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
Yes there is, we have an EDP Programme, and we also have a football team which we play against others
