Aerospace Engineer Review

Currently within my training period, learning both engineering theory in a classroom and gaining practical workshop skills. Have university online one day a week.

I have developed new knowledge throughout my training period through the classroom and practical learning. I have also learnt new knowledge through my university program.

So far I have enjoyed all of the programme, though it has been limited due to being in my training phase, but I feel well prepared to enter placements.

The training phase was only supposed to take 6 months however has been extended to 9 months due to poor planning, but it has not been adressed how this will affect the overall length of the apprenticeship. The rest of structure is good.

I believe there is a good support structure in place, especially with having a skills coach who you have 12 week reviews with to address any concerns.

There is a lot of support in terms of university with lecturers happy to answer any questions and help as much as possible.

It is hard tp say due to still being in the training period. However, I believe it will definitely help when it comes to placements.

Due to Brough being a small site, it is mainly just activities organised between individuals that are unrelated to work to attend as extra-curricular. There are opportunities for voluntarty activities such as being a STEM ambassador.

Yes

I believe it is a great apprenticeship offered with many benefits.

I believe the best thing to do is just be yourself, the company are not looking for how much you already know in terms of engineering but more the potential you have to be moulded to the role in the company.
