Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I spend 4 days a week on the job training, focusing on providing stakeholders with data and insights to aid their commercial decision making, mainly through creating reports and dashboards and providing ad hoc analysis requests. Then I have 1 day a week as a dedicated apprenticeship day where I have the opportunity to build the foundations and develop my skills, as well as receive 1-2-1 support from my training provider where needed.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I really enjoy it, I find my technical and professional skills have enhanced massively since starting the apprenticeship, I love the balance of learning and on the job training, and I find VWG have been amazing and ensuring I am able to achieve my full potential and succeed both in a career and in my apprenticeship
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Absolutely- my skills in excel, power query, power bi, python etc. were all minimal prior to beginning my apprenticeship and now I am able to independently carry out tasks using these tools without assistance and produce high level results
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well organised and structured, we have regular review meetings wit my line manager and my training provider to align my projects with my skills and learning, ensuring I get the most out of it and cover all of the relevant areas in my apprenticeship
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Loads - As a company we have an early careers HR manager to support us throughout, as well as a supportive line manager and team, and we have been assigned a mentor in a different area of the business to support us and help as and when needed, with regular catchups with all. As well as support through the forum and mental health first aiders, physical therapist on site and plenty of other support available as needed
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
We have regular catch ups with line managers and training providers to ensure and adjust my learning to align with my projects, and that I cover all aspects relevant to my apprenticeship. As well as weekly meetings to update on progress, and to arrange for 1-2-1 support as required, always available for support on work tasks and apprenticeship tasks
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
Definitely, my apprenticeship has allowed me to learn the skills and tools required to be able to carry out my role more independently and has allowed me to develop even more to ensure my work produced is of a high standard
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Yes - there are options to get involved in many employee network groups including inspire, parents & carers, we enable etc. as well as plenty of social events like team gatherings and xmas parties and the opportunity to get involved in sports such as monday night football etc.
