Invest your child in skills development ASAP

My team have prepared a few skill development activities for secondary school students to fill their long holiday as below. All of the activities were supposed to explore secondary school students ability and talent both in electronic engineering and software development. Besides, participants will see the importance of learning and applying good English language skills.

The admission is strictly for secondary school students. It is good to explore the youngster talent As Soon As Possible in life in order to build self confidence and sense of carrier direction. Based on these skills development experience, students should know whether they like the field and have the necessary talent to pursue it in a higher level learning institution.

1. Smartphone Software Development
    Software development for smartphone application is getting more important. The percent of growth in Smartphone sales has overtaken PC sales all over the world. Having android based software development skill will open a lot of opportunities in the student's life. It is so important that nowadays, even electronic engineers are learning the skills in universities.

Admission fee is RM100 per secondary student.


2. PIC Microcontroller
    Embedded system design is the art of miniaturization of a PC into a smaller based design known as a microcontroller. It is used for a specific task such as processing a washing machine, traffic light control, automatic gate control and various control mechanisms in a car. This short course will expose participants to basic electronics design, and C language programming. Participants will learn that logical thinking is very important in this field.

Admission fee is RM100 per secondary student.


3. Personal Computer Assembly and Maintenance
    PC usage is very important in daily work and as a university student. It is a frustration if a PC breakdown while using it to complete an assignment. Sometimes, the damage is only minor. But without the necessary knowledge and skills, it is impossible to repair the PC on own. Beside, if a students know to assemble a PC on his or her own, the configuration can be customized for specific usage and reduce the purchasing cost.

Admission fee is RM200 per secondary student.


All short courses will be conducted in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Skudai, Johor. Since the space and equipment are limited, the number of participants who can be admitted are also limited.
