Jess talks about her apprenticeship and how it has helped her grow in her career and improved her clients’ lives.
I started working for YOU four years ago. At the beginning, I completed my Care Certificate which massively helped me and gave me that boost of confidence I needed when it came to do My Apprenticeship for Level 3 Health and Social Care.
I found the company have always been on hand to support me in this process. I tended to doubt myself and my knowledge a lot when I first started. However, this has changed and I realise I know a lot more than I think I do. This lets me make positive differences to our clients’ lives. Living their best life to their best ability and of course having a bit of fun along the way too.
YOU have been a big part of my training and growing in my career. The course is really well done, with trainers and assessors understanding our job roles. They are flexible, offer great support, and I never felt like I was on my own. Until the exam – which was nowhere near as scary as I thought it would be and I got my distinction! WOO!
They are more than happy to help when you are stuck and guide you, give great feedback but most times out of 10 you will already know the answers, so believe in yourself!
