Overview of Role

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

4/5

I am engaged in project work, helping to develop schemes and promote them internally and to stakeholders, before handing them over to contractors for construction. I am involved in frequent meetings and manage much of my own work load.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

4/5

I enjoy the varied aspects of the work environment as, while I may only be involved on one project, there are multiple areas of interest within it, meaning I gain lost of exposure to varying aspects.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

4/5

I have better developed my presentation, writing and communication skills, as well as developing modelling and designing skills

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

3/5

It is fairly well organised, with there always being work to do that is important. There is also ample time for me to complete study work for the University course.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

4/5

I receive ample support from my employer whenever I need advice or support.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

3/5

I receive ample support from my employer whenever I need advice or support.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

2/5

I think the knowledge is useful but it isn't always accurately linked to how the real world of work works. The end degree will be useful going forwards to show what I am capable of.
