Iffco (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. / Effa Asmidah Osthman

I am considering myself a very fortunate to work in IFFCO (MALAYSIA) SDN BHD during internship period. The friendly and welcoming staffs, also the space they have created for a trainee, allowed me with the full opportunities to learn, gained valuable skills and broaden my world view regarding my future profession life. This internship helped me to relate knowledge acquired at university with the working environment. Well, the main objectives of the industrial training are to provide an opportunity for undergraduates to identify, observed and practice to apply theoretical knowledge in the real industry. It is not only to get experience on technical practices but also to observe management practices and how to interact with people. There is saying; 'It is easy to work with machine, but not with the people'. I am also learnt the way of work in an organization including the importance of being punctual, giving maximum commitment and team spirit. Apart from that, I have learnt through this internship is learning something from books and lectures is nothing like having first-hand experience as the working environment is totally very different from life as a student. Thus, an opportunity for training here has opened my mind to be better prepared for employment in the future. In overall, I think practical training is a very helpful to students as it is a great stepping stone for us to gain experiences and learn to adapt for working culture before pouring ourselves completely into the society. I am truly suggest every trainee and juniors who about to undergo the training, do enjoy every moment of it. It really helps out a lot in the future. The experience I have gained through this practical training is valuable.
