Industrial training report: RP (Chemicals) Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. / Nurul Hafiza Abdul Hapidz

All students are required to do industrial training as it is part of the university to complete their studies. I have been chosen by the company RP Chemicals (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. well- establishment company in Kuantan, Pahang to undergo industrial training for 24 weeks. During the internship at RPCM, I have gained invaluable knowledge and skills where I crucially enhanced my understanding of the workplace. One of the advantages of my internship was the development of my interpersonal and technical skills. Their supportive work culture enhanced my personal growth and allowed me to improve my communication, confidence and teamwork abilities further. I learned how it is important to engage effectively with colleagues especially, from various departments which it can further my understanding of how collaboration and strong relationships advance to achieving organizational objectives. Moreover, my technical skills were greatly increased as I often worked on various tasks including administration, project management and financial calculations. I was given the opportunity to apply academic theories that I learned in my Human Resource Management studies, especially in areas such as administrative tasks, training and development, tax calculations and many more. These can further strengthen my expertise in the field later. In addition, I was able to analyze RPCM’s SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) which provided me with valuable insights into the organization’s position and possibilities areas for improvement. The exposure of RPCM’s SWOT analysis not only broaden my increased my understanding of how company value their internal and external environment but also experience of how they strategically position itself in the market. I now have understood well how it is essential for companies to occasionally evaluate their strengths and weaknesses while grabbing out opportunities and taking initiative to manage threats. Overall, my internship at RPCM was a great experience because I was able to gain hands-on experience in areas that directly aligned with my academic studies. The opportunity to work along with professionals in the field and understand the ins and outs of the company has enriched my learning which could help me for better equipped in the workforce.
