Engineering Maintenance Review

liaising with the skilled trades in paint shop maintenance and shadowing them on their daily job, gradually gaining experience and being able to perform some tasks by myself while being supervised

i have learned lots of new skills and the maintenance engineers are happy to help and teach me as i go along. I have gained lots of skills in fault finding and how to solve the problem

I really enjoy the programme because i am hands on with the equipment and am part of a team that is responsible for keeping the paint shop running

I feel valued by the company (my immediate managers anyway) but i have never had any involvement with anyone higher. But my managers are very supportive and want to help.

It dos have structure now im in my second year and have just been given my logbook to fill out. before there was no real structure so had to find my feet and have a go at everything

I have a meeting every 6 weeks and he is always reachable by phone or email and will help with anything and will raise problems further if required

I receive good support from my managers and they will always help with any problem and are supportive and want to help me better myself.

My salary meets my costs very well because i am able to keep savings and can afford to pay for my car and have money left over. The salary is very good for an apprentice.

I have not really explored this avenue very much myself so i feel i cannot really comment. There are oppourtunities but i am not really sure what these are

Yes

I feel it is a very good company to work for and they give you lots of support f you neede it and you will end up with a reall good career at the end of it.

To have good gcse's as well as other qualifications that make you stand out because the GCSE's are a minimum and if you can show them you have more then you can have a better chance
