Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I am a level 3 Business Admin Apprentice and I work in the licensing department. My role involves Communicating to customers via telephone, email and face to face, document production, spreadsheet and database maintenance, minute taking and attending meetings. I also need to attend training sessions and complete coursework for my qualification as well as work shadowing.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I enjoy my placement and have found that this has been a great introduction back into the workplace.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
During my apprenticeship I have developed and sharpened my Administration skills. I had basic knowledge of Administrative work but no experience or confidence before starting my placement last year but I now have full confidence in my skills and feel that I have all the necessary knowledge to be employed in this line of work.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
I feel as though the programme has been structured very well and have had no problem keeping up with the timeline it has been set out in.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I feel very supported by my employer, if I have any questions or need support completing/ checking over tasks I feel confident in asking for assistance and have always received high quality help. As a disabled individual I was weary of working again but have felt supported and cared for the entire time and it has given me the confidence boost I needed.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
When I need support I have always been given it.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I think that my Qualification has helped me build confidence in my skills and has taught me a lot about being a business administrator, this has helped me understand my role better and given me the necessary knowledge to do my job.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
we went volunteering in our local community. There are also charity events like bake sales for us to participate in too.
