Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Engineering fitter, constructed subassemblies and fitted them to assemblies, helped on building production lines and on refit/update of old machines.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
2/5
Decent, but there were too many issues in coordination and communication between work and college which led to course switching redoing work.

I have learnt a lot of hand tool and power tool operation techniques, different fitting methods, use of machines such as millers along with CAD skills.
