Overview of Role

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

Current in college for the apprenticeship and this has been extended so we’re here longer. When I’m on site, I will prefer it. For now, we’re studying different subjects.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5

I really like the people on the course and the actual apprenticeship is very interesting.

Skills Development

Currently just in college so only learning educational skills, however when I’m on site I will learn the practical skills.
