Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My current role is working at the helpdesk which is different to what I had expected when starting the consultancy apprenticeship but has been useful in teaching me different more unique skills nonetheless. I take calls and handle e-mails.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I really enjoy the programme and I wouldn't trade it for anything. The experiences I am getting are unique and I truly feel blessed to be in the position I am in
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Yes I have developed a plethora of skills such as call handling, e-mail handling, presentation skills and working on pressurised situations just as a few.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
It is very well structured as seen by the fact that we will receive chartership as well as the level 7 qualification at the end of it
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
The levels of support are unreal. We have 6-7 people that we can turn to who are there purely for our support and progression whether that be mentors, performance managers or line managers.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
The support I have received has been exceptional. I am given time to work on my apprenticeship every week and we are also fully supported when travelling down to London to pursue our face to face apprenticeship duties
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
We learn new things that are relevant to developing our soft skills and knowledge of the sector.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Yes, I am a part of the wellbeing group as well as a 5 a side group so there is plenty to do and get involved with
