Boland College Reviews

 

I have good communication, interpersonal and organisational skills

maintain close relationship with the student administration, marketing department and other college personnel. I learned how to multi-task, working with groups, working with students, conducting surveys and interviewing students and how to assist them with career advice.I enjoy working with many people, working as team and independently. I have been given a task to finish within two days but the scope of the task was to be done within a period of two weeks, however I focus to my task and getting my job done with the scope of the project.

Pros: conducting exhibition local and provincia
Cons: working extra hours, saturdays, sundays and public holidays

Good customer relationship building

A typical day whilst working at Boland College, would be getting all the learning material ready for the students. I would usually have a re-cap on the previous lesson and also add some real time information as to what is currently happening in that specific industry in South Africa and Globally. It is also important to have one-on-one conversations with the learners as to determine where everyone is on their individual Learning Curve. With the Learnerships I was also in contact with the employers of the company to ensure that their is a strong communication structure in place. The most exciting part for me about that position was to get feedback from learners after a couple of years and see how they have grown and the impact I had on their lives.

Pros: Great opportunity to gain experience regarding Education in all forms be it NCV, Nated or Learnerships. Constant learning curve.
Cons: The administration is alot so I just had to manage my time accordingly.

Excellentlearning curve

Dealing with different customers have contributed in my customer service knowledge and has improved because I can deAL with customers professionally in any state they are facing. This was the opportunity for me to practicality what I leant at tertiary to the real world. Now I believe I have what it takes to be the best at work place. Being a student and work at the same time tough me how to multi-task even at work I am able to do the very same thing. Working as a team gives gave me a lot to learn about and such as leadership, team player, and organizer and coordinator.

Pros: Trusted
Cons: Long hours

Intrumental skills

Boland college is good TVET institution. One of the best in the region. My relationship with co-workers is good. We work well together, because my position is essentially a managerial role my direct report is the Campus Manager. Here I have learnt that keeping communication validates the credibility of your brand. it sustains it's known value from one community to another. Thus every interaction is crucial especially at the front desk and via e-mail responses. I enjoy the internal campaigns and written communication initiated internally and with the institutions external audience. Regards Yolanda
