I have year long placements in different areas of the business as a PM and complete a degree at the same time, of which is 4 years long, with an EPA at the end.
I have been given a number of opportunities, to speak with senior management, as well as the opportunity to travel with work.
I think there are a number of opportunities that are provided to you as an apprentice, however I do think the amount of opportunities is based off you team and you finding this for yourself.
I think it is well structured, however there are a lot of different teams in early careers and sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish who to go to when.
I feel there is ample support if you need it.
I do feel that there are a few areas of improvement with the training provider, with inconsistency with marking and teaching, as well as contradicting statements.
I feel there is some knowledge that is valuable to the role of a PM.
Yes I believe so, however they are not communicated very well.
Yes
They support you to progress through the business, there are a number of incentives to work harder and there is ample support if you need it.
Find out what BAE is really about, not necessarily the exact work, but look at the values and make sure this is drilled down into your answers.
