So far I haven't learnt many new skills as the higher level apprenticeship - at least for now - is quite theory based.

So far my experience is limited to self driven study and essay writing which is not my preferred method of engagement or evaluation.

Very disorganised

I ask for support where required, however this is rarely.

So far, only a single engagement has been provided with a learning support, however there are support lines that I can leverage.

Little

Sure, but im quite busy outside of work and prefer to align to my social agenda externally to the workplace
