Start my day at 7am, we get assigned jobs the week before for the current week and prioritise the jobs. No day is ever the same but we would usually all meet on site to decide on a plan for the day and go from there.
I have learnt how to weld, as well as a lot more about general maintenance.
It comes with some challenges and some days are harder to enjoy than others but overall i am content with how my apprenticeship is going
For the most part, it is organised, there is just a few times where it has been a bit unorganised
I receive an okay amount of support of my employer although i do feel sometimes i am left in the dark about things and maybe sometimes forgotten about
My training provider is great with support and always quick to help when needed
It definitely helps as i can take stuff i have learnt from them back onto site and into my work
They do have sporting events and other sort of activities to get involved in like coffee mornings, cricket and football
Yes
Although sometimes it has its downs, it has its ups also and can be a very positive place to work with a lot of opportunity
Ensure you take everything on board and take advantage of all the opportunities
