5. How well organised/structured is your programme?

I feel as though the organisation could be improved for the apprenticeship. There was a long wait until i got my work clothing and college PPE. I am nearly in my fourth year now and i will be soon going onto shift work and i still haven't received all my tools that i need to carry out my daily taks. I also think the structure could be improved in regards to who we work with and what jobs we do.
