  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I enjoyed the process of creating and delivering a presentation. I do think that the programme could be more interactive as the vast majority was spent shadowing my work. My tutors were also changed several times however my final tutor was a pleasure to work with and made the experience more enjoyable.

  • 5. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • I feel as though Learn Direct could have been much more organised. My tutor was changed several times and this caused a delay in my apprenticeship being completed. I also feel like some of the units, chosed by Lloyds, did not entirely meet my job description which caused some issues when coming up with ideas on what evidence to collect.
