Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
Media production coordinator- logistics, finance, backbone of productions.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
The working was great - on placement. The training was not so good from the educational provider. Guest lecturers were mostly great - BBC training was good as well.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Definitely on how to organise a film from end-to-end.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
It was somewhat structured - but at times tedious.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
A lot of support from scheme’s advisors and manager!
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
A lot of support from our Senior Programme Lead.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I think fairly well - but I would say I learned everything more from my day to day job.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
2/5
Yes.
