I enable scientists to be more efficient in creating the active pharmaceutical ingredient by aiding them in using automation technology.
I have developed my organisational and communication skills.
I really enjoy my job as well as the work environment.
Extremely as both the CEO and the head of my department recognise the benefits of having apprentices.
In work it is very structured, however, the university side is less structured.
My training provider gives a lot of support but I believe that the course should be reorderd to benefit myself more in the work place.
I recieve so much support from my employer as they really want me to succeed.
I do run low due to the living costs of having to move for my apprenticeship but that is due to renting costs in the local area. However, due to the increase in wage year on year, I do believe it will be more possible.
There are lots of clubs to join depending on your interests as well as any courses which you find interesting.
