  • 5. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The apprenticeship hasn't been the most organised thing I have ever taken part in, I haven't recieved calls when I should have done and then recieve them when they are not due. When I turned up for my exams they were not expecting me and it all seemed a bit hit and miss depending on who you spoke to.
