The apprenticeship was a great scheme and helped me develop in my own time. Help, support and further training is always available.
The appreciation and notification of success is greatly rewarded and notified. Work well and want to achieve and you will. Not wanting to achieve and successful, you wont last!
Program was well structured and disciplined. Relaxed and enjoyable. Great working environment and trusted to succeed.
Enjoyed the program very much. Was great fun, great learning curve and help always at hand. Managers, advisors, and shadowing engineers always happy to listen and help provide support and share knowledge.
I recieved alot of support throughout my apprenticeship program. Mentor and Manager in particular.

Apprenticeship is a great way to learn. Help always provided and plenty of time given to learn. Managers are always helpful and treat you with respect and are always willing to help you succeed.
Be Honnest. Be willing. Show a good attitude. Treat others with respect and expect the same in return. Help out and people will help you. Use the time as an apprentice to the full. Spend days out with other departments, other teams, colleagues and ask, ask, ask, ask, ask as many questions as possible.
