Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My day to day basis consists of being the best version of my self for the team every day. I give inputs and opinions and help out with work when needed. Being part of a project in real time is always rewarding because you can see your work in the final product.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
I enjoy my program I just wish it was more hands on and involved more practical work. I personally don’t enjoy being at a laptop all the time.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes, I’ve learned alot about the drainage sector for HS2. I didn’t realise it required such articulate planning. I’ve learned how to use computer design softwares and systems all while learning about the project I’m on.

I learn alot from the training provider and that knowledge I’m able to use within my work
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
Yes there’s a few, I’m actually in the process of creating a football team for my work place!
