Overview of Role

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

5/5
Within my job role, I possess the roles of enrolling learners onto their apprenticeship programmes, and supporting them through tasks they are set before they can be officially enrolled onto the apprenticeship.
Furthermore, I have been involved with supporting learners during their apprenticeship also by providing guidance, providing learner resources and more.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5
On the apprenticeship side, I have learnt about the different aspects of a business administrator, and the knowledge that is needed in the day-to-day role. This includes business finance, relevant regulations, policies, business fundamentals and more.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5
Although I have not yet completed my Business Administrator Level 3 Apprenticeship yet, I have still learnt a variety of new skills within the apprenticeship. This consists of administrative and organisational skills. business and workplace knowledge, teamwork and much more.
I have also been able to upskill my existing skillset to an even better standard, which includes customer service skills, IT & Digital skills and problem-solving.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

5/5
The BA3 programme that I am currently undergoing within Ginger Nut Training is a really well organised and structured. The modules that are covered are well separated, meaning I have plenty of time to complete assignments and tasks based on one module before switching over to another module.
Furthermore, I am provided with regular support as well as easy access to resources, allowing me to feel reassured and noticed during the completion of my apprenticeship.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5
Ginger Nut Training consistently provide support for me during my apprenticeship. I am allocated a good amount of time in order to obtain OTJ hours by completing different assignments and tasks before the due deadline.
Moreover, I am also given the opportunity to have my own working space for when I am in my allocated off-the-job time, which makes me feel supported throughout. My line manager is also always making sure that I have enough time to complete my assignments set, and asking if I need any further support with my apprenticeship as a whole.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

5/5
My tutor is always providing me with guidance and feedback during my apprenticeship. I am able to complete my assignments and tasks to a good standard with my tutor being there to hand if I have any questions or concerns about any of the assignments or tasks set to me.
My training provider is also very supportive in the way I am able to access learner resources with ease and get any support needed for any technical difficulties or issues I may have which may be stopping me from gaining OTJ hours. Support is provided really quickly, and the service is always friendly.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

5/5
I believe having the newly learnt knowledge from the Business Administrator Level 3 apprenticeship so far has helped me in a very positive way within my job role. This is because I am able to see different business processes, understand how the business works by comparing my learning to the organisation I work for, understand different financial terms and much more. This helps me to build my confidence within the job role, allowing me to work to my best level.

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
I have attended a few networking events which has allowed me to connect with different apprentices and employers, and the organisation has been very supportive in allowing me to have time set to attend the events as well as the necessary resources based on the event (E.g. Equipment for a stand at a careers fair)
