    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • It is very mixed. I manage many different courses, some of which are delivered internally and some externally. I manage the non-standard training for the plant as well as managing all of the vehicle training for the plant.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • Yes, I have had the opportunity to go on many training courses to develop all of my skills, one of which was Excel Training which has developed my digital skills. There is a huge offering for development at Nissan which makes it an amazing place to do your placement

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Yes, I was given a huge amount of responsibility with booking different courses which sometimes were upto £20k per course. This always linked to budget management which gave us information on how many more courses we could book in etc


  • Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

    Support & Guidance

  • 4. How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
  • The support from my team was second to none. They always answered my questions with meaningful answers. We have had new people join the team since I started and they have been falsely supportive. I think that this is embodied in all of the teams at Nissan.

    Culture

  • 5. What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
