Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Maintaining Electrical Equipment around the Airport ensuring safe and easy travel for all.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I have enjoyed it thoroughly so far.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have learnt many new skills over my time as an apprentice, a lot of which have been during my time at trafford college. I have learnt many tool skills which have proved useful both at work, and at home.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
It is well structured, I have spent a majority of my time so far in college to learn the basic skills, and am soon to attend the airport now that I know the basics.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I have received lots of support in all aspects from the airport.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I have received lots so far, and can ask for help and receive it swiftly.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
Very much. I wasn’t skilled with the tools I am now when I first started so would’ve have to learn all that at the airport on job instead.
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
None that I have seen so far, but I am expecting some when we start full time there.
