Overview of Role

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

5/5
My role is hugely varied, one day I am supporting with launching a new nationwide partnership with a mental health charity, and the next I am supporting with large change projects. No two days are the same!

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

4/5
My apprenticeship programme has allowed me to put my skills to use and to think about the bigger picture behind everything I do. It has also helped improve my critical thinking skills and my ability to find solutions to real-world business problems.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5
Both! I have definitely learned new skills on HR theories which was a totally new area to me, but I have also developed my ability to influence others which is hugely beneficial in my role.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

5/5
I do think the apprenticeship programme is structured well. It hasn’t been an easy ride but has certainly been worthwhile!

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5

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

5/5
My training provider has bent over backwards to support me and help me believe in myself and stay on track throughout the programme!

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

5/5
Again it has helped me look at the bigger picture and to apply theory to every day scenarios

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
Not really
