Lecturer: Dr. Leong Hong Yeng

Graduate success attributes is a study which exposes students with a lot of qualities and skills  towards becoming an employee. This course equips students for a life long learning and personal development to become successful in society. 

Throughout the course, there are two individual assignments and a group project that need to be done. Firstly, I need to do a case study about the current issues. Next, before 2020 ends, I also need to make a self-introductory video and lastly, early January 2021, my lecturer assigns a group project regarding the entrepreneur skills by interviewing an entrepreneur.

Throughout the course

There are a lot of things that I learnt from this course. To be a better graduates, employees and also society, skills is an important things that an individual should have. As we know, these days, it is not easy to get a stable job. Hence, skills is the one that make you are better than the rest. Some of the important skills are communication skills, leadership skill, thinking skills, and so on. 

The case study assignment need me to do some research regarding the current issues. From this, it encourage me to always alert with the current issues. Next, the self-introductory also had given me an exposure about how interview would be conducted by video as right now, COVID-19 restrict us to meet face-to-face. 

Last but not least, the project also had improve my knowledge about entrepreneurship skills. From the experience shared by Dr. Yeong, I get to know more about how entrepreneur conduct their business. It is not easy for sure but nothing is impossible.
