Full disclosure of the industry was perfectly exhibited throughout the four months of my stay there. Being able to participate in numbers of brainstorming sessions, meetings, and projects, had given me immense exposure to the reality of having a career in the chemical engineering industry. Being exposed to the reality also made me realize how important it is for the youth today to be well informed and well prepared to take over the industry in the near future. Our generation would soon become the ones responsible to maintain the good we have today and to improve every aspect of the world we know. Therefore, students should utilize the training to its fullest extent, or else it would become a wasted opportunity. Other than that, students can now practically understand engineering knowledge, in comparison to theoretically learning them in classes. Thus, to cut to the chase, being a student that understand concepts of things alone would not be enough as the working field is 100% hands on. Therefore, it is imperative for all students to be given the chance to experience the world of working in order to prepare themselves for the future awaits. It is also worth noting that the workplace environment, and how it functions can not simply be taught or learned in classes. It requires direct involvement to be understood. To conclude, it is beneficial indeed for both students and companies to encourage training programme as future employees can be ensured to have had at least some background in the industry. Students and companies are two coexisting benefactors and lifting one another should be encouraged
