Throughout my apprenticeship, I received extensive support and guidance from my mentors. Their encouragement played a crucial role in my development and helped me navigate the challenges of my apprenticeship. Upon completing my Level 2 qualification, Essity provided me with the opportunity to pursue further education. I am currently studying for a Higher National Certificate (HNC), thanks to the company's commitment to my continuous learning and development
