The programme was great and gave me a great understanding of business fundamentals, project and change management and analysis.
The GAP analysis was really helpful, ensuring all areas of knowledge were covered.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I've learned how to manage my time to ensure work is completed in a timely and accurate manner.
I also learned that I prefer to work alone and own a project. Where I share responsibilities, I am learning to understand that my way of working is different to others.
My SMART goal at the beginning of the apprenticeship was to become the data 'go to' for the department and I'm thrilled to say this has been achieved.

I received huge support and encouragement from my line manager, colleagues and the wider business.
I proactively found ways to incorporate my OTJ training and this was fully backed by my manager who checked in regularly to ensure I was ok and achieving what was required without stress.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

I received loads of support from the training provider. During the project management element of the apprenticeship, I reached out for additional help, this was booked in without delay which helped me understand requirements of the assignment.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I have gained confidence with my role and an understanding that I'm good at what I do.
I can now communicate with stakeholders at all levels confidently.
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
Not that I'm aware of.

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Avery Healthcare Group to a friend?
Yes

Avery Healthcare promote learning and give opportunities to achieve this. It's not just talk! This is done through continued encouragement and team work.
The whole L&D team are currently working towards an apprenticeship qualification, including the head of our department. We are all here to support once another.
