Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
My role is to maintain the a1m and surrounding roads. At the moment ive been litterpicking some days, and some random jobs. Recently cleaned the yard. Ill go in the morning then load up the van with the right equipment for the job ive been allocated and do that for the day and if done, go back to the depot tell them and get assigned another job.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
College and work are both is alright, depending on the topic/type of work. Its good having an apprenticeship but if i could learn more skills and get more training so i could do so it would be nice. At college we do a different practical every month so gaining more knowledge.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
3/5
i have learnt quite alot of skills at college, such as using a cat and jenny. Using lots of new power tools. setting up some traffic management. Lots of health and safety. At work the skills i have learnt is a slight idea on how to lay a curb but to be confident i would have to do it a few more times.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
The structure of it is okay, but if i was to be involved in more jobs at work it would help me with the epa when it comes too it.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
I recieve support when its needed and questions are answered.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
College are very helpful going through powerpoints too get you educated on the topic and performing practicals so you have experience on the skill.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
Helps me perform better as it gives me awareness on the job, as ive performed it during college during practical and gives me basic knowledge.
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
Theres an apprentice day on thr 29th april where all apprentices can meet. Apart from that im not aware of any.
