Every apprentice will meet with a Trainer Assessor every 8-12 weeks. Your Assessor will check your progression and provide help and support. Your Assessor will set action plans and objectives to ensure you stay on track to completing your apprenticeship.

Apprenticeship Mentor

An Apprenticeship Mentor is available at the College to monitor your progression, help with any problems you may encounter and act as a point of contact for both you and your employer.
