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

I complete a lot of document control of drawings and forms. I have also been involved in quality control in the form of checking the location and levels of sub contractor work.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
I have enjoyed the content on my course but the way it is run by the university could be improved

I have learnt new skills but I think I could have learnt more if I was site based and not mainly in the office.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I do receive support in lessons and workshops however, some lecturers haven't been very good at explaining things

4/5
So far it has helped me slightly but the modules I have completed aren't particularly relevant to my work
