To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I enjoy it because of the skill learning and the development into a career.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Since starting the apprenticeship i have learned many new skills, such as: Welding, Soldering, Milling, Turning, Hydraulics and Pneumatics and many Mechanical skills. At collage I learnt how to use CAD software and many maths skills.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
it is very well structured as for the fist year you are at collage, then you come to the factory and learn the processes used on a daily basis. this helps with the write ups because i am familiar with the processes.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I get a lot of support from my mangers co-workers and the collage.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
The collage is very supporting, the lecturers seem to push you that extra mile for a distinction and they help the whole way through.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
it helps me understand more on what I am doing and why I am doing it, for example electrical testing i understand because of all the training i have done, it made it a lot easier when I came to the factory to understand the purpose and the process.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
yes there are
