6. YOUR PROGRESS 6.1 Personal Coaching and Progress Monitoring Your USW Lecturer will have regular contact with you. Your lecturer will also be your Personal Tutor, whom you are also encouraged to approach at any time to discuss any issues or ask for help or advice. As apprentices, your progress will be regularly reviewed by both Wiltshire Police and USW as your apprenticeship provider. Regular tripartite progress reviews will be planned into your apprenticeship programme. The tripartite progress reviews will record progress against your training plan providing an opportunity to discuss and agree any changes to your programme and monitoring the development of the required Knowledge, Skills and Behaviours specified in the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship Standard. The progress review will involve you the Apprentice, an Apprenticeship Support Officer (ASO) from USW and a representative from Wiltshire Police, likely to be a trainer, tutor or line manager. The ASO allocated to Wiltshire Police is Colette Chilcott, Colette.chilcott@southwales.ac.uk.
