Project Controls apprentice Review

As a project controller I will rotate through placements in cost, risk, data analysis, planning, scheduling etc. through my 4 year degree. In cost I frequently complete weekly reporting duties across my programme and apply submissions for invoicing payment etc.

My work placements are very well managed, planned and structured - My degree work is also fully planned ad laid out online scheduled to the end of my degree.

I have weekly check-ins and daily discussion with my line/placement managers and a monthly check-in with my university link tutor and line manager to ensure I am progressing and to discuss any additional support I may need.

Monthly assessment support sessions to ensure our assignments are on track the week before submission as well as the monthly link tutor meetings to ensure I'm progressing to the expected standard and to address any additional supports I may need.

My degree work in understanding the theory behind the work efforts seen in the real working industry so few skills are actually transferable in the sense of actually performing the role- On the most part the degree is giving me an understanding of why the work is done

Very professional setting. Apprentices are valued by and involved in teams and have impactful work. there are huge opportunities to learn new skills and develop in the addition to getting a degree funded for by Babcock. In addition to the degree, you would also gain 4 years of practical work and experience you wouldn't achieve without their apprenticeship scheme.
