As part of my curriculum while at Ngee Ann Polytechnic, I had to go on an internship. I was one of the three students picked out of the pool to go to Honolulu, Hawaii from 4th September to 8th February for an internship with Pacific Telecommunications Council (PTC), a non-profit IT company. PTC brings together people from all over the globe to attend their event (PTC'19), to learn and share about the new and upcoming technological advancements happening in their side of the world, all while connecting with each other. The event is mainly a 3-day course filled with speaker sessions, workshops, and more.
My title was 'Conference Assistant'. My job was focused around creating EDMs, event display, development of the PTC’19 Mobile App. I was also the in charge of liaison for the Young Scholar Program, the speakers at the conference as well as co-lead in co-ordinating volunteer recruitment.
Applications used during internship: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe After Effects, Mosaic, Omar the TentMaker.
