Project Management Review

Involved in the business operations within my placements. Currently in Paint and Coating project planning. University is 1 day a week.

So far I feel my Communication, Confidence, Organisation, Planning, IT and Business knowledge have all improved due to having lots of opportunities within placements to build on these.

Really enjoy all aspects of work, the university course is challenging yet engaging.

Due to being such a large company there are a lot of other apprentices to manage, this does show occasionally. On the whole things are decently organised.

Lots of support when required, but will equally allow you to be independent. I feel confident asking for help.

Due to doing uni from home I feel somewhat distanced from the uni and getting support. I feel this could be improved upon.

Practices and Methods to correlate in the uni course and in the workplace

Outward bound, stretch activities, workplace social events

Yes

Enjoyable experience, learn lots of new skills and develop existing ones, good community to be part of.

Make sure the role you apply for correlates to your personal qualities and experiences.
