Be Part of the Change Episode 8: A Day in the Life of an Apprentice - with Anna Mido, Zara Edmonds and Panashe Mutasa

University of the Built Environment

The built environment comprises a diverse and exciting range of sectors, but there is still a lack of representation at every level. We want this to change.

‘Be Part of the Change’ is an awareness campaign with the purpose of celebrating the incredible success stories of our under-represented students, apprentices and alumni, as well as highlighting their challenges.

It’s also an opportunity to highlight the positive practices our employers are actioning within their organisations to inspire other companies in their approach.

The eighth episode of our Be Part of the Change podcast is hosted by Anna Mido, an apprentice at Montagu Evans and student of UCEM. She's joined by fellow apprentices Zara Edmonds and Panashe Mutasa (of CBRE and JLL respectively), who together provide insight into the world of apprenticeships.

The topics discussed in this episode include:

• What does the typical working day look like as an apprentice?
• What are apprenticeship rotations, and which has been your favourite so far?
• What has been the biggest challenge in your apprenticeship so far?
• Do you feel you're able to connect with your peers at UCEM?
