3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I enjoy my programme to its full extent. Learning at college one day a week on my HNC course provides me with valuable knowledge about civil engineering. However, I believe most of my learning comes from being on site 4 times a week, learning off of my mentor. All of the skills i have gathered so far from this programme have helped me become the engineer i want to be.
