- 1. In 2012, I attended a business seminar in Mississauga conducted by Amway Canada Corporation. I was invited to attend the seminar because I was working as a sales representative for the company. My task there was to network with other sales representatives for Amway and learn ways to expand my sales business. By interacting with a diverse crowd of sales representatives, I learned how to manage my existing customers and income and further expand my business. I also learned how to achieve these goals.
- 2. I travelled to London, England with my family in 2007 to visit my parents. While in London, I visited the various landmarks in the city including the London Bridge. I learned about the history and culture of London while reuniting with my family after a long time. I gained a great appreciation for the rich history of England and also bonded with my family.
- 3. This award was presented to me for having perfect attendance at my previous employer, Symcor Inc. I had to not only be present everyday, but I also had to be punctual for my shift. I achieved these goals by being organized and dedicated while I was employed there. My dedication was rewarded by my manager with this certificate.
- 4. I attended a fundraising event this summer with my husband to raise money for the high school he attended as a teenager in Sri Lanka. I volunteered to sell tickets for a charity cruise and interacted with many people from my husband’s village. It was a great opportunity for me to improve my communication skills and I gained many new friends and increased my confidence.
- 5. Last semester, I took a course at Centennial College called Global Citizenship (GEND500). In this picture, some of my classmates and I are holding a discussion session on social problems analysis. All of us use English as a second language and often experience language barriers. This was our first group project which enabled us to work together to research and gather information for writing a report. I improved my computer, interpersonal, and collaboration skills from this project.
