Currently, I go to college 5 days a week working in different blocks to gain knowledge for engineering. At the moment I am soldering to IPC standard before starting my project.
I have learnt how to use CAD tools, solder components to PCB boards and use hand tools for metal work
I enjoy this apprenticeship, to say this is my job is a great honour.
Very well structured, at the beginning of the year I knew what I would be doing and when I was doing it.
I feel very well supported. My managers regularly visit the college to track my progress and ask if there is any support they can provide to help me.
This college is great. The trainers are very knowledgeable and very laid back, providing a calm atmosphere for learning where I am not scared to ask questions.
I think the qualification I am getting will help me perform better in my role as I had no previous knowledge on how to solder and now I am confident in soldering.
Not at the moment as I am not working on site
Yes
It is a great company to work for with lots of career progression
Be yourself, its better for people to be true to themselves in front of the employer rather than lie as you may find it harder down the road.
