9/10

1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

My role is titled Electrical Maintenance Apprentice. When I come in to work I shadow an Electrical engineer and see what the job is all about. over time we get trusted to get involved which depends on if we have learned or not.

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

As the Apprenticeship goes on you pick up how to do the job and with working with different people you pick up different ways of doing the job. with this you can then do the job in the most efficient way.
