: Sample Answer
Throughout my academic years I have attended many training sessions and today I’d like to talk about the training session that I attended 3-4 years back when I was in 2nd year of my graduation. The training session was on Advanced Microsoft Office and presentation on Power Point. As a B.B.A student, I had great interest in computing and I attended the session with an enrolment fee of 500. The session was organized by a career building organisation in our city and they had a good reputation of conducting successful sessions and training programs. Many of my classmates attended the session that held on the 3rd floor of the company’s building
Initially we had some doubles about what we would learn from the session as we already knew the basic Microsoft Office functionalities. But after the session started we found that the session was organized by some professionals and aimed for those who already knew some basics
The session started at around 10:00 am and ended at 4:30 pm with 2-3 breaks. During the session, the professionals who were conducting the training, talked to us about numerous career related topics and their way of presenting those was very exciting. They told us many interesting facts and sometimes joke as well and we could not restrain ourselves from laughing. The training part went well and was interesting as well since we have learned many new things from it
The advanced office functionality they presented was amazing. I never knew that those things were possible with the programs I already knew! Later on the power point presentation session went very well. We learned so many things and became very excited. I was so interested that I went home in the evening and at night I tried those lessons and functionality on hands with my computer
