I never saw myself working in ICT as I thought it was too technical, however I have surprised myself with how much of a geek I am!

This gives ample time to complete your classes and assignments, whilst also giving you enough time in the office to complete your day-to-day work, contribute to the team\u2019s goals and put some of your knowledge into practice.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Although I am only into my third term, I already feel the content covered has allowed me to reflect on my project management skills and allowed me to voice suggestions or improvements to current practices, where previously I would not have had the confidence to do so.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I encourage everyone to take full advantage of the apprenticeship scheme as it not only formalises skills you already possess, but also gain new ones as well as a new perspective on how your organisation works.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI am currently studying a degree apprenticeship in Project Management to further my knowledge\u201d I currently work as a Technology Delivery Manager in ICT having previously worked in the external events team.
