Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Fixing and upgrading the VMO2 network.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
I enjoy the actual job but would have found it more useful if the apprenticeship learning was based more on what we do on a day to day basis
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
Well structured job but apprenticeship days consist of 3 block days per month of learning, would be more beneficial if they were spaced out each week to keep learning fresh.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
Not often that we use anything we have learnt through training provider in our 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.)
