I have found the apprenticeship programme that i am on very interesting and extremely useful.
The structure that i have been given from First Intuition has been extremely useful and well thought out. It is easy to follow and makes it an enjoyable course. If there is anything that i am unsure about, they are always happy to help.
My employer fully supports all of the my the time and effort that i need to put in to my exams and studying. If i have to attend lectures, study lessons, exams or need time off to learn something new for my apprenticeship, they are more than happy to accommodate for this.
My training provider offers me tonnes of support. The package that they have put together for me has reassured me that this was the right decision. If i have any questions about my apprenticeship or my studying, they have made it very easy for me to have access to the material and coaches/tutors for me to obtain the correct help needed.
I can easily transfer any skills that i have learnt in my apprenticeship in to my daily and weekly work. The courses that i am studying are relevant to all of the activities that i am required to take out.
Our company regularly hosts different team building exercises that we are able to attend, and there are various groups that have setup sporting activities such as golf and football evenings.
