  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The programme is well structured at my restaurant every month we get 6 hours to do our apprenticeship work at the workplace. Which is really useful to me as it gives me the time to focus and ask questions from the manager if needed. I'd say it's well structured and useful.
