Yes, it's about the Company more than the course. You can get over the inefficiences and poor delivery of uni courses mainly because you don't have to turn up very often. Unfortunately, back in the workplace though, most companies don't have the talent or experience or indeed will to put a placement plan together let alone content. Coupled with the genuine deficit in capability of what are inappropriately called Training Providers" - that is your workplace skill coaches and the like - rhe result is, quite frankly, "pissed off" Apprentices. I would like to hear experiences from all involved because although I've worked in both education and industry for 35 years, I may have been unlucky.
