Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Day to day I go into college and do practical work to get an understanding of electric. I’m learning new skills.
But in college there is theory which is lacking a bit as I find some teachers in texcert go too quickly or nothing happens
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

Everything, my class is great and I have good teachers.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

In college it has been a little all over the place but has got much better.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I think there is good support but haven’t used it yet
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
There is support but sometimes we find ourselves without anyone in the class just apprentices but it is good and electrical teachers are good and very knowledgeable
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I think it will help me start my journey
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

We have a camp at the end of the year.
