Today we had our first lecture for our professional practice module which I felt was very effective and interesting. We were shown some of the types of industry that are in the UK It gave me a better understanding of what industry's are out there and what industry's relate to our course. Next they covered the year in industry it was scary to hear the slim amount of people that got placement last year with only 14 out of 40 getting placements which I though was very low I expected more. However I am staying optimistic and am going to apply for as many placements as possible that I feel our in my skill set.
Also I created my linked in profile today and started uploading all of my work, adding connections that I know, writing a bio of myself and overall creating an professional online portfolio of myself.
