Craig our Maintenance Operative is studying for the level 2 Property Maintenance operative Apprenticeship alongside his role. Read on to find out more about his experience so far:

How have you found your apprenticeship so far? 

After enrolling on the apprenticeship, finding my way around the providers system was slightly tricky at first but working with the provider is helping to make it more user friendly.

What has been your biggest learning so far?

The legalities of what is in the background, behind the practical work involved in maintenance.

How do you use your apprenticeship learnings in your day to day role?

The things I have learnt through my apprenticeship so far have given me the knowledge to assist my manager with audits, statuary checks, daily running as well as the practical elements of the job that keep the site operationally moving.

How are you currently using your off the job training?

My off the job training is mainly where I have a set day of the week to complete my coursework, then agreed dates are set to attend practical sessions at the providers training centre to further my skills. 

What are the three words you would use to describe your apprenticeship journey? 

Learning, knowledge and progress.
