The first couple of months were a introduction to National Grid. Then everything else that we have been taught has linked together slowly building our understanding from the the basics upwards.

Any help needed is given by the tutors. They will also stay after class if you need more help.

My line manager and mentor are very helpful with anything that i need or ask. National grid also has a good HR and support network if you need help.
