Overview of Role

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

4/5

I look after the commercial aspects of a construction project. This can involve finance, legal, and contract administration skills.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

3/5

My apprenticeship focused on building houses, but I work in infrastructure. I still enjoyed the programme, it just made it tricky to apply what I was learning to my work.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

3/5

I'm currently focusing on developing my knowledge, so skill development will come later.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

3/5

The programme is quite long for something that is delivered exclusively online.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5

My employer has been fantastic. I feel very supported by them and they provide what I need to succeed.

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

4/5

The Uni has a good student study support team and they have been helpful.

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

3/5

It's limited at the moment, but future modules should be more relevant to my role.

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

4/5

My employer has several professional networking events, and often run social events,
