Mechanical Engineer Review

Overall my role requires completing various engineering technical disciplines such as: general arrangements, specifications, P&ID's, mechanical design. As well as project mangement such as: programme reviews, collaborative planning, health and safety reviews, managmenet of subcontractors, cost reviews.

Yes, I've further developed my business competance and technical capabilities in line with the course outcomes. I'm far more confident when addressing technical challenges and acting as a leader for others in my discipline.

Unfortauntely the online nature of the Cranfield programme, as well as disjointed leadership has left it feeling extremely dissatisfying, particulaly as the materials provided by Cranfield have been geared towards specific businessness as opposed to a general intake.

This programme from Cranfield is fairly well structured, with generally appropraite content. It is the specific materials that are too heavily targetted towards other businesses.

Mott Macdonald has been incredibly supportive in terms of study leave, and compensation throughout the course. Individuals are always ready to fill in for any roles or requirements of the apprenticeship.

The training provide has completed their role adequetely. However I believe the Cranfield course needs further development to be suitable for an open cohort.

Overall I feel the taught material is helpful to my role as a project leader, but unfortauntely I feel I am placing more value on it's value as an acredited certificate rather than the taught material itself, particularly with this Cranfield course.

Plenty, it's a fantastic place to work and get involved with sports and social.

Yes

Despite my issues with the course provider, Mott Macdonald has been incredibly supportive throughout the process and looked after me while I complete this course.

Be friendly and (reasonably) talkative. Everyone is hapy to offer help and being honest about what you can offer but where you need support is a very well valued.
