To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I think the structure of the apprentice programme should be revised. During the length of my programme so far, I don't feel like I have learnt as much as I should due to certain factors on my project, I am unable to be involved as much I would like to be.

How well organised/structured is your programme?
1/5
Should be be more focus on how to develop the apprentice and build their skills throughout the 5 year programme. We need certain skills in order to pass the apprentice should there should be a focus on the apprentice gaining these skills and be put on variety of projects where this is possible. To build their confidence in this industry and line of work.
