  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I learned how to communicate with people higher than your position. Also I learned how to do time management as I used to work on 3 projects at one time. This will enable me to meet my targets while completing my degree.
