maintanace Review

At the moment, I am in my first year of the apprenticeship so I am at college for the whole first year. At college, you complete a btec and a nvq. The college is not the best run however there a few really good tutors who will help you a lot.

I have learnt a lot of new skills which include turning and milling as well bench fitting. As well as that i have learnt how to assemble fluid power boards and electrical skills. Also we have done PLC.

The programme itself is a lot of work however it can be fun at times when you are with your colleges.

The programme itself is well run and constructed and clear however the college ruins some of that aspect due to it being poorly run at times. However, they have been different circumstances this year leading to that.

We recieve a lot of support from our employers and we get a lot of visits from our manager frequently where he asks how we are doing.

The tutors are really helpful, you will have the odd few who arent but the majority are really good at their job

It is required that we do the qualification before we can do anything at plant so therefore the qualification helps us a lot.

At the moment not being at plant I dont know as well as with the coronavirus pandemic not at the moment.

Yes

Joing this apprenticeship at 16 and straight from school has meant that I have had no previous substanial work experiance however it is really good and the fact the BMW hold apprentices in a high regard is reassuring during the times we are going through. You will be supported in this apprenticeship and it is a really good career path to join and to progress your career path in.

Just answer truthfully and try to show your passion for engineering and cars through your application.
