  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • The programme from the learning programme has been difficult. The course is a year long and it has been up and down, due to tutor changes and changes to branches.

  • 6a. How much support do you receive from your training provider?
  • The first tutors I had were not supportive, the current tutor I have been assigned is great. She checks on my development and pushes me hard to excel in my training.

  • 6b. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • As the branches were short in staff, the branches I was at initially was unable to provide me the time, the current branch I'm working at is providing me all the support. I am there temporarily, however I hope to complete my training in that short time.

  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • I'm quite sure that I'm paid the same salary as non-apprentice. So I can't complain. However, considering the status of the current economy we could all do with a raise.

    8/10

  • 8. Are there many opportunities outside of work?
  • Outside of work, not very much so. It has benefited me inside work however.
