Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
2/5
Unboxing equipment, Setting up devices with power and video cables. Moving equipment. Rubbish collections.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
2/5
In my starting year, I would grade the programme around a 4/5; however, in the last academic year, it hasn't been as expected.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
2/5
In my first year, I developed a range of technical skills; however, in recent times, this has not been the case. In terms of soft skills, I have been given the chance to demonstrate these, such as organisation, public speaking and teamwork.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
I personally don't feel that there is much structure directly within my apprenticeship. The extra-curricular side of it, such as workshops or wider opportunities, has been great and I have enjoyed them, but in regard to my learning and development, I feel like it could be better.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
2/5
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I feel greatly supported by my training provider in trying to explore opportunities to learn. They have guided me in striving towards qualifications and I feel that they have been a reliable support structure to help me achieve.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
It has given me the confidence to speak up and input my views to reach an optimal outcome. This causes conversations to occur which further progresses my learning.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
The Early Careers team have been amazing in providing opportunities to connect with others and learn from them. There are also many sports events I have been invited to, such as Netball tournaments or a Football tournament to support Black History Month.
