Best Apprenticeship Employer

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

The apprenticeship in general has been good but there has been many things I have found that have made the apprenticeship a pain. Including having 2 tutors leave already so my course has to be pushed back by 6 months, and the lack of contact when I had the tutors here. Other than that is has been a great apprenticeship and i have the option for a good job at the end of it.
