7.9/10

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

I feel that the advanced apprenticeship i am currently doing is great, however i feel that initially it had been made out to be more than it actually is. This isnt negative, i just think it would have been better to not have dressed the whole apprenticeship up and just show it for what it really is, which is a good scheme.

Definitly, i feel i have gained masses of confidence in and outside of work, i have gained great life skills and technical knowledge.

Yes

Its a great place to work and in the current sitation with a struggle for young people to find jobs its a very secure place to work in terms of knowing your job is secure

This scheme is great, its a great oppurtunity and it will develop you as a person, however i would definitly ask for an honest opinion of existing apprentices before choosing it to make sure its right for you.
