I am currently fully employed on a full time none-apprentice contract, I opted into the apprenticeship as further education at a later date. Having full time responsibilities makes completing some aspects of the apprenticeship harder and others easier
Purely academic rather than practical, matlab for example
Teachers do not have enough time to teach the material with only one day of college per week, with half a day per subject.
As said above, im already a qualified commissioning engineer so can't speak to the organisation of the in work programme. College is fairly well organised
Fair support balanced with role responsibilities
Quality of lecturers/teachers has fallen off and many of them appear to be leaving the job. Individual support for reviews for onefile etc is good and the college has provided support for learning difficulties. Very much let down by the teaching quality atm.
Unsure
No
Yes
Good employer, interesting industry, very supportive through pretty much all aspects of personal life that could interfere with ability to work
Apply for a part of the business you have some interest in. BAE does a bit of everything
