Managerial roles in Single Homeless Hostel, Liverpool and managerial role in semi-independent accommodation with young people age between 16-18 years.

Having the qualification will secure further personal development and opportunities within the industry.

In your opinion, what has been the best thing about undertaking an Apprenticeship?

The Apprenticeship has worked well as I can go at my own pace and my assessor is very supportive.

What have Acacia Training and your employer done to support your learning journey?

My assessor is on hand the majority of the time and my employer allow me to complete work in work hours if need be.

What new skills have you acquired in undertaking the Apprenticeship?

I have learned to talk through any questions or queries with my assessor – we often have long conversations about situations which arise in the workplace. My assessor has encouraged me to look at things with a different view from time to time.

I would recommend to others as it is a relaxed way of working.
