Overview of Role

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

5/5

I carry out pre & post contract tasks on projects across the UK and around the world. As an apprentice, I have an internal support network in the team, and an extended support network through the university.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5

I would highly recommend my programme to anyone that is considering a job in construction.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5

So far I have learnt the basics of NEC contracts, how to develop a cost plan, the basics of construction and developed my software & client care skills.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

5/5

My internal team is extremely supportive of my development and support me in both my job role and my uni work, helping with the time management.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5

As above.

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

4/5

My training provider is a fully virtual university, which means you have to manage your own time, however the university provides additional support if you are struggling or fall behind.

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

5/5

So far, the modules I have studies have been relevant to my role & to obtaining chartership after graduation.

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

There are quarterly activities set up for the individual offices & sports teams that meet weekly. The Exeter office is small, so some offices have more activities than ours.
