4/5
Only new into this apprenticeship but have developed some techniques for focusing on and delegating tasks.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
Course seems to be well organised but the communication seems to let it down.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
The business have committed to allowing us the time to do this program. My line manager is happy to allow me to put the time where I see fit to allow me to complete.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
Support has been good so far but only one month in.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It has allowed me to realise that different people learn and communicate in very different ways.
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 think that there is things like this but being a remote worker this is difficult.
