Overview of Role

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

4/5
My role is basically just a sales assistant while learning online and in store of what everyone else does until i can do it on my own. I do stock, customer service at tills and first isle, delivery, and facing up

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

4/5
I do enjoy it as I like the people I work with and get on with everyone well and no issues in store and if there is I can always ask for help if needed. I feel as though I’ve learned a lot through the experience about retail.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

4/5
I’ve learnt a lot more skills in retail like the customer service side I feel like I’m much better socialising now then I was before I started here

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

4/5
It is well organised I would say as there is a whole online learning plan on everything you need to learn and extra help if needed.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

4/5
I receive a lot of support from my employer as if I ever need help they will always help me with an issue or just explain something that im confused about.

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

4/5
I receive a good amount of support from her as I am always given the right information at first so I can get on with my work and if I ever need help she’s always there to help me.

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

4/5
As I’ve got an end goal and know what I need to do and learn to achieve it helps me to learn better and quicker so I can achieve my goal.

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

2/5
Not that I know of
