Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I talk to Clients and Markets on a daily basis, to reach the Clients needs in a quick and efficient way.

5/5
I am really enjoying the Apprenticeship so far, as it gives me a lot of responsibility and helps me learn in a real world environement.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
My Excel skills have improved rapidly whilst being in this role, whilst also developing my soft skills.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
A structured learning plan is put in place to help us pass our exams. There is communication from external providers to ensure we are on track.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
My Employer as a whole is very supportive and allows me to resit exams if I do not pass at first. My Line Manager is also very accommodating to help me adapt to new environments.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I get good amounts of revision from the external provider, with 3-4 online sessions per module. I would however say that the amount of communication from TGC in terms of well being is not as regular.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
This qualification teaches me the basics of Insurance, and as this is my first role in the industry, it really helps me understand things in my daily role.
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
There are numerous social activities within different groups I am able o attend. For example, drinks with my team, or CII events like quizzes etc.
