Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

The programme is 4 days in the workplace and 1 day at college then if you get behind on the college work all you do is ask the one running the workshop or the boss to do it during work and they will sort something out from there

Lots I receive time if needed during work hours to do college work if I ask and we have technicians around to share there knowledge as well to help when we get stuck on a job

Lots we get work done at college 1 day a week towards the qualifications with the tutors help to understand what we need to do

At the end I will be qualified to do anything on a car diagnostics, repairs, a/c work

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