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

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I am really enjoying my apprenticeship. I enjoy the work and my colleagues, they are all supportive.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learned more about how to use excel to speed up processes of working out equations, this is a new skill I have developed as I had not had much previous experience of excel. I also feel more confident with my email etiquette.

3/5
My programme is structured well. I know when and which tasks are due and also when my exams are due.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

I receive a good amount of support from my employer. They allow me the time to study and complete tasks necessary for my apprenticeship and they also are supportive and recognise my needs.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
I receive plenty of support from my training provider when working towards my qualification. My coach is very 'on the ball' when it comes to me completing my tasks in a timely manner and also has been very helpful with the processing of my exam provisions.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
I think it has little impact on helping me to perform better in my job role. Certain but very few tasks on aptem have been able to provide me with additional knowledge
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
2/5
Yes
