A very great place to work
The culture at social development is very great; people treat each other like family, a very great place to work. I enjoyed every day that I went to work and I strongly believe that all of the skills that I have been picking up from the internship will be truly beneficial. My supervisors are very wonderful people, up to date with everything new about IT and they would even let you tag along to IT seminars with big organisations. I have had numerous roles at the department of social Development in a very short period of time. They gave me opportunities to attend courses that improved my people skills and my supervisors also gave me opportunities to explore new options and run with ideas that might equip me for the future, and management cares about our career advancement as interns and they always check how are we progressing and if the supervisors are teaching us all we need to make it out there in the IT industry.
Pros: go the opportunities to attend courses that improved my skills
Cons: firmware in some of the devices are outdated

Challenging position
As a class educator in a juvenile centre I've excelled in my management skills and ability to plan and work under pressure. In the larger facility there is a general neglect in the operations and learning of the educational sector. This is because the department does not specialize in education and ends up with a watered down version of what is truly needed to create a well run, nurturing environment.
Pros: Stimulating and challenging position
Cons: Poor management
