Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My role involves working with distributors to improve their online presence. I produce newsletters and have taken ownership of our transactional 'weekly comms'.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I love my role, I believe the university/work balance is ideal and if I require more time for university assignments, my manager is very understanding.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
My technical skills have improved in my role. Using excel to present data such as customer metrics is a recurring task.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
The structure and organization of my program is very clear. For example, Wednesday and Friday afternoons are dedicated to lectures and other Uni work and we have two on campus days per term.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I receive constant support from my employer, even though I'm encouraged to be independent with my work, I know I can always ask for help when needed
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I receive a lot of support from my lecturers who have office hours whereby you can arrange a call with them. My Coach is also very helpful and we have monthly meeting and a tripartite review every three months with my manager.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
A lot of what I learn in my lectures is applied to my everyday work, for example knowing about customer journeys and the P's of marketing.
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
I have engaged in some apprenticeship events and monthly quizzes hosted by the apprenticeship committee.
