Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
4 x 6 month placements within your function. Working as a project manager in my case, i work closely with my team.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
Placement side of the apprenticeship, really good. Support in early carers acn be poor if you get off to a bad start.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I wouldn't be able to do any of the things i do day to day before the course

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
Communication from early careers can be very incoherent.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
2/5
Support can be questionable however there is always someone available to help
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
Well layed out and strict curriculum. Could maybe be too strict as its a level 3 course
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
1/5
Other than communication with stakeholders, the learning is very basic (as the course is) and doesnt link much to my role. The assignments are 80% evidence gathering
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
Plenty of things to do. You just have to know where to look
