3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

BT is a great place to work as an apprentice and a lot of effort has been made with my professional development

10/10

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

BT provides me with a lot of support. Unfortunately the same can not be said for Interserve (the training provider) who often provide incorrect information on assignments, prefer it when we don’t ask questions during workshops and have a lack of organisation

8/10

5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

Amazing support

10/10

6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

Rushed explanations during harder part of workshops, lack of clarity around assignments, lack of organisation! We are often told there will be changes when we complain but then nothing happens

1/10

7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

Through independent learning based on the assignments my performance at work is improved

5/10

8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Many! Events ranging from a week away to events after work - both social and for development

10/10
