I am responsible for the day to day HR aspect of my business, working closely with customers, mainly focused on recruitment, resourcing and learning and development
I have been able to understand more about Employment Law and it’s complexities, which has been of great help. I have also gained my CIPD membership from undertaking the apprenticeship
I was very lucky with a great Learning and Development coach and a lovely tutor, both who assisted me throughout the programme.
Very well, I knew straight away when deadlines were, how I was able to manage conducting the programme as well as manage my day to day role
My employer was really supportive, my manager helped me wherever he could and ensured that I did take the time to conduct all aspects of the apprenticeship
I was lucky, my LDC was a great help when I got confused and my tutor was always available to discuss any aspects of the modules.
It has helped me broaden my own knowledge and enabled me to feel more credible in what I am doing. I constantly think back to aspects of the modules, or refer to the textbooks for advice.
Yes, however due to the pandemic this has been more challenging and profession led items are not as well advertised as previously had been
Yes
I have worked here for over 15 years and I have found the support for any Learning and development to be fantastic, it is very rarely that it gets denied.
Be yourself and don’t have a perspective that it’s all about the Military
