To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I do enjoy the program. I think the one thing that could possibly be approved is communication between the college and Bam

I would say that my Excel skills have increased dramatically since joining BAM, and also my formal writing, as this is utilised when processing and drafting subcontract orders

I would say that the college side is very organised. However, the company side isn’t as much that’s where the issues arise

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend BAM to a friend?
Yes
Why?
I would, but I would strongly suggest that they stay motivated self motivated because it’s a bit disheartening knowing that you’re all employer team does it doesn’t really bother, but the actual team that you’re working around does
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to BAM?
I said above about motivation, but also ensuring that you do actually use the skills that you’ve learnt at university or college in the workplace as they all transferable
