Technology Apprentice Review

Spend the entire day working on support or developping software as well as completing my apprenticeship responsibilities.

I have developped alot of skills in programming, working with many industry standard tooling and services and different programming languages.

I enjoy it alot as it is progressing my goals whilst giving me long term beneficial skills and experience

It is not the most well organized/structured as there was not enough co-ordination between my workplace and apprenticeship to ensure that the things that I am learning in the apprenticeship will be able to be put to use within the workplace in a timely manner. There were times where I had to teach myself something because the apprenticeship schedule wouldn't have me know it for several months before I would need it in my workplace which resulted in a lot of time spent focused on self-taught learning only for the tutor-lead learning activities to be redundant

I receive a lot of support and flexibility from my employer facilitating my needs within and outside the workplace, such as accommodations for religious requirements etc.

I receive alot of support, there is never the feeling that I don't have the option to learn something or get a qualification whilst working and learning

It hasn't been perfectly organized but overall it was well targeted at skills I could need in my role, although the range was potentially too wide resulting in some unnecessary learning being done.

There are many organised social activities such as board/video games groups or sports activities and tech events fairly often

Yes

Good experience working here especially for a first job role
