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

    • Visiting learners in their work environment, delivering teaching and learning sessions with them and discussing their off the job activities. Booking sessions with English & Maths tutors and facilitating functional skills exams. Preparing them for end point assessment.

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

    • Yes. I have learned how to deliver a teaching and learning session using different models and questioning techniques. How to use the company online platforms, and various computer packages. I have studied safeguarding & PREVENT. Time management, planning & preparation skills.

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

    • Initially it was very overwhelming due to the amount of new information and the delivery of some of the content didn't fit with my learning style, but I fed this back to coaches who then supported me on an individual basis. The digital learning components are easy to follow and it's up to me as the learner to plan the time to complete these.

    7/10
  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • Some of the content was delivered in the wrong order, which was fed back and action is being taken to rectify this. I can see everything that is covered throughout the programme at any time. I know my end date.

    7/10
  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

    • My employer is very supportive of my apprenticeship and I am able to devote adequate time for completion of the learning plan.

    8/10
  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

    • Most of the content is learner led, so I don't see a coach that often, although I do have a progress review every 12 weeks and I can contact my coach whenever needed.

    7/10
  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

    • It gives me the theoretical tools to do the job, from these I develop my own behaviours.

    6/10
  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

    • Volunteer days for a charity of your choice.
