In education, training to become an aircraft maintainer to work on chinook and apache's to be able to support safe flights

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

The course is very interesting and enjoyable

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5

I have only been on the course for a month but I have learnt so much which has been really good to expand my engineering knowledge. Some of the existing knowledge I had has helped me but the course has developed this further

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

I feel the course is very well organised especially as it is the first time running it

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5

My manager regularly checks up on me as well as other members of the management team within the company including visits to college

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

5/5

The lecturer is very good with an extremely high knowledge of the aircraft I will be working on. Every morning he checks on the team and always explains stuff in different ways until everyone understands

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

5/5

The course consists of both theory and practical knowledge/skills that I will be using regularly in my role. The lecturer has a huge amount of experience in this area so he is able to give me knowledge above and beyond the set course

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
