How does the course relate to what you do on a daily basis?

The course provides a specific management qualification that is respected and recognised and linked to CYP and families. It also demonstrates that I am committed to learning and continuous professional development and provides valuable first-hand experience of how to support staff if they started an apprenticeship or similar work-based qualification.

Would you recommend completing an apprenticeship to others?

Yes, absolutely. Suffolk County Council have been very supportive.

If you could use one word to describe your apprenticeship what would it be?

Worthwhile.
