APIM Quality and Compliance Apprentice Review

Regular housekeeping audits, supporting the review of SOP's and documentation, organising archival of documents for site closure

Improved knowledge on quality expectations within pharmaceuticals, learning about procedure changes and change controls

Very enjoyable, learning new research and development techniques within the college program which has helped support my learning experience and development within the team

Good, college sessions are well structured and informative, always know what the next session will be in relation to so that you can prepare and review notes and reading material. Always on time

Cogent skills are very hands on and approachable, always supportive and quick to respond to any queries in relation to current work as well as future prospects. Pfizer has been very helpful and supportive in providing learning experience and activities to boost knowledge and capabilities.

CSR are very supportive, within the assignments the tutors are very quick to respond to any queries, provide supportive feedback and are helpful when it comes to providing referencing materials to use for assignments. They have also been very supportive with trying to find other placements in the case of the Pfizer shutdown

The learning materials, input sessions and assignments are very well designed to support learning within the workplace, providing examples of how to implement what we have learned and offers support in trying to improve processes.

There are many groups on site within sandwich that help with networking with other teams, other students and other companies

Yes

So far throughout my apprenticeship Cogent have been very supportive and informative about different progressions, advice on improvement of skills, and are quick to respond with helpful information. They are very hands on with liaising with learning providers where needed and setting up helpful meetings to improve professional development.

Ensure you research the company that Cogent is liaising with for the apprenticeship and find out information about the role and progression afterwards, interview questions can be very specific to the role and company so being prepared is always best.
