Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I'm a logistics stock team manager. My primary role is to support my team so they can accomplish the depots targets. My secondary role involves planning and implementing stock based projects to increase efficiency within the operation.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I've enjoyed the programme immensely. It's been a life long goal to improve myself to the extent where I have a recognised qualification.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have developed most of my previous skills during the time of my apprenticeship. One of the best skill I have obtained is to understand and control budgets on a large scale.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
The programme is well structured and I felt confident throughout. Though I am very nervous about submitting the end point assessment documents to the assessor. Usually I would go through my tutor.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
They give me all the time and support I could possibly need. Especially the senior team, they have been very helpful.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I've had constant support from day one all the way up to handing me over to the end point assessor. We are still in contact and she offers support if I need it.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
The skills and experiences I've gained through this programme has helped me in so many ways. I have a better understanding of my team, my company and our customers. I feel confident that I can make an impact in the Coop with my skills
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
There have been quite a few events throughout my apprenticeship. I can't remember what they were though.
