Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
I think its good, but could be better. On a whole it feels like Sky focuses more on people in the Graduate program. So it would be nice to have similar time frames and options than the grads do with rotations ect
How much support do you receive from your employer?

Sky have been so supportive with my apprenticeship. My manager has helped me greatly with securing projects for my portfolio and allowing me the time to focus on apprentice training and work

It was a lot more at the beginning than it is now. There's been a lot of change within the provider and its hard to know who to talk to when i have questions etc
