Program is excellent and clear within term times, only slight issue is some modules particularly those that run over the course of the apprenticeship could be better explained and managed.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

A lot of support. Team is friendly and always willing to help and can also look to outside your team for further support. Lots of opportunities for networking as well.

I feel a lot of the technology we learn on the job isn’t inherently applicable to my role but the skills we learn are - and I know many other people practice the skills learnt on our course more. I have room to develop in any area I wish.

Many social activities are held for apprentices and a lot of opportunities exist both within the workplace and the university.
