Electrical Apprentice Review

Liaising and communicating with customer in relation to Engineering and creating technical documentation.

The first year of the program is almost entirely college/uni based within a workshop environment which I personally found to be rather hard as there was not a defined structure due to the college itself and communication between my company and college. This experience is the complete opposite once starting physical real work as actual work is structured properly and there is more management of tasks and managers ensure you are always learning towards your ksb's or completing relevant work.
1st year 3/5.
2nd year 5/5.

100% communication with all the managers and multiple departments I work within.

Given plenty of time off, (1 whole working day a week) and extra time off when asked to finish HNC.

For me personally not a lot as I use very little skills from my HNC because of the role I have chosen within the company, for most people doing my course it would be very beneficial.

Yes

I have recommended Babcock to many friends and helped them with their applications as I have a very flexible work schedule where I can work from home without having to ask or in the office and I can start work between 6am-10am so have plenty of flexibility. I am also apart of the SWAAN network which helps people apply for apprentices within the South West and more specifically Babcock.
