I get a good amount of support and get a catch up with my employer every few months on how I am getting on.

At college I get loads of support to help me pass the qualification.

I think you definitely need a starting point with the qualification and getting the qualification helps you work towards being a confident electrical engineer.

I'm not fully on site yet but I'm pretty sure some of the guys meet up and play football during the week
