Trainee FTTP engineer Review

To provide EU with FTTP services whether that is from Overhead or Underground, fault finding and repairs

Whilst on the apprenticeship I have learnt new key skills that are job specific which include signs lighting and guard, pole, ladder and steps training to allow me to provide over head cables and hand rodding to allow me to provide cables from the under ground network. I have also complete fibre foundation course where I learnt how to arc weld two fibers to complete the connection.

I am enjoying the apprenticeship side of the role, but believe there could be improvements made for the actually physical job and work allocation as at times it i feel under pressure to complete tasks whilst also collecting photos and evidence for my portfolio

Great structure to apprenticeship and Kevin Elliot has been great in supporting any questions that I have had whilst on apprenticeship days with him.

Kevin supports whilst on apprenticeship days is second to known and if there is questions he doesn’t initially have the answers to he will get them for me! Brilliant work from Kevin!

Again Kevin has supported me on any issues or questions I have.

I believe that it will allow me to continue my high level of quality and notice what is and isn’t correct when I’m out in the field. Will also expand my knowledge of the telecoms business

I regularly take part in carp fishing and watching my local rugby club to show support to the players that I used to play with. Also enjoy DIY I am currently renovating my flat.

Yes

Due to the long career paths that are available and such diverse job roles

Be open minded and not afraid to ask questions if you are unsure. As it’s all relevant and will help you learn. Not question is a stupid question
