2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

I have learnt a lot more about automotive vehicles and am able to apply this knowledge to my workplace as I do jobs and take apart different components and come along different faults. I have also learnt how to carry out specific jobs such wheel alignment, suspension removal and installation, brake removal and installation.

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

The only thing that I don't think benefits me from the programme is VCT sessions 2 weeks in a row before a week of the same stuff at collage. I'd rather do 1 week of VCT, then a task to have completed for collage.
