  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • The apprenticeship program I am on is quite enjoyable, the sections within each category have some really useful information some of which i actually use when speaking with my staff about self improvement, The activites within the categories can sometimes be challenging and sometimes a bit confusing but in the end you manage to get the work done, I expected this apprenticeship to be alot easier but to my surprise it can be quite difficult but i know i have the support there to get through it.
