Monday 6th January




Working from home, using my allocated apprenticeship time to cover work as per my OTJ record.  I finished early today due to it being my birthday.


Wednesday 8th January




Today I have been working through my matched documents in Anite.  Checking through the evidence provided by claimants, making sure all the requested information has been provided and then I have updated the relevant claims.  I was also allocated an atlas spreadsheet which consisted of DWP updates for claimants who are in receipt of Pension Credits.  We receive a lot at this time of year due to the uprated figures which usually begin in April.




Thursday 9th & Friday 10th January




Over these two days, the Northgate benefit processing system is offline due to essential updates. 




I have worked in the office on Thursday and I have completed mandatory training requirements on Mipod extra.  The training items I covered were: Stress Awareness, Health and Safety Awareness, Manual Handling, Display Screen Equipment and a Homeworker training requirement.




On Friday I worked from home.  I have taken this extra time to work on the Maths modules within bksblive.  With the exam being on 21st January, I have been trying to work my way through all of the outstanding assessments which appear to be never ending. I have reached level 2.9 on all subjects now, as far as I can see.  I will hold off doing anymore on this as per Sandeep's advice.  The system needs to be checked as it doesn't appear to be working how it should.

Monday 23rd  December Working from home on my apprenticeship as per otj training record. Wednesday 25th Dec - Thursday 26th December Christmas holidays Friday 27th December Today I have been working from home as our building is closed for the Christmas break. I have been allocated UC pfd's in anite for me to assess.  Some are for changes in income on already active CTR claims but the majority of them are for new claims who don't match up to any person or address already on our system.  For these I have had to check council tax records for the address of the UC claim to make sure this person is liable to pay Council Tax. I have then created the person and the new claim on the Northgate system.  Some I have been able to process as we have their UC income details. For the new UC claims, where payment is yet to be made I have pended them to check in a few weeks.

Monday 20th January 2020 Today I was in the office and attending the pre booked Maths revision day with Amanda from Escalla.  We spent several hours going over different maths processes and she helped with any aspects that I wasn't confident with.  I found the revision time really helpful and Amanda explained things really well.  Tuesday 21st January Today I was in the office, on my usual day off work.  I have completed the level 2 Maths Functional skills exam online this afternoon, after spending the morning revising again with Amanda.  Even wit hall the revision, I found the exam difficult in places.  I was very disappointed that I ran out of time on the first, none calculator section.  I only managed to get through 12 of the 15 questions.  It made me a bit distracted then carrying on with the next section of the exam.  My mind goes blank and I get in a panic sometime when I have a timer to keep to.  I managed to get through...
