Sharing my second internship task at NyayaSarthak ,of preparing A Summary suit under order XXXVIII of Code of Civil Procedure!

I announce that I have updated my resume to reflect my latest achievements and experiences! As I continue to grow both personally and professionally, I believe it's essential to keep my resume current and showcase my skills and accomplishments accurately. The updated resume now includes my recent projects, internships, and academic endeavors, providing a comprehensive overview of my expertise in civil engineering, sustainable construction practices, and research.

"Thrilled to embark on my internship journey with John Holland Civil Engineering! From new bridges to high-rise buildings and rail projects, I'll be diving into a dynamic range of construction tasks. Looking forward to learning hands-on skills like calculating concrete volumes, analyzing building drawings, and ensuring safety measures like CCTV placement. Let the learning adventure begin! 🏗️🚧 #Internship #Construction #LearningByDoing"

"Internship complete! I'm grateful for the opportunity to have worked with [Government Municipality] and gained valuable experience in civil engineering. I've learned and grown so much. Thanks to my team and mentors for their guidance and support! #civilengineering #internship #governmentmunicipality"

Summer has arrived and newbies are joining your projects. Go back in time and recall your first days in construction. The jobsite looks and sounds chaotic. The jargon used on site sounds like a foreign language. Here is a recent quote from a young field engineer - "As a novice in the industry, I felt an overall uncertainty about all the details. I had to learn on the fly - leaving me quietly Googling terms or asking embarrassing questions to my superintendent." We're asking new interns and engineers to navigate a complex construction environment while also performing important tasks. For the sake of safety, production, quality and all the other critical factors on a project, put yourself in their shoes and take time to train and orient your new folks this summer. If you're looking for time-tested resources, Construction-Education can help.

APPRENTICESHIPS: AN EMPLOYER'S VIEW Powers, is approaching the fourth year of its L3 Geospatial Apprenticeship Scheme. Here are the pros and cons of hiring a Level 3 Apprentice: Pros They learn the correct, text book way of carrying out their role (not learning piece-meal from whoever's available in the office to teach them). They hit the ground running and start doing simple jobs independently within nine months. They have confidence, due to what they've learned, and they can happily challenge decision making on site and in the office, reducing errors in all measured surveys. Running a geospatial training programme at our company alongside what's being learned at college creates wraparound training and embeds information fast. Powers is learning and improving alongside its apprentices. Offering apprenticeships shows people entering the profession that as a company, we are serious about their education, learning and development. Powers service quality levels have increased ten-fold to its clients as ALL members of the team have the correct knowledge, confidence and understanding to carry out their role. Productivity levels go off the scale when apprentices become qualified and they are in the office full time. Very often, apprentices want to continue their learning so we're looking forward to the launch of Sheffield Hallam University's Level 6 in Geospatial Mapping and Science Specialist Degree Apprenticeship in February 2025. Cons Having an apprentice away from the office one day a week or for weeks at a time (block release) can make planning work difficult. Turnover may be stunted as a result. The Minimum Wage is now so high that some SME companies are reticent about taking on apprentices who are out of the office for 20% or their working week (or for block release weeks). Companies are in effect 'paying' for their apprentice to attend college. As a team, we are sometimes challenged on the way we do things because 'we've always done it that way' (in effect, Powers is benefitting from the most up to date learning too). That's it! Not many cons and these are far outweighed by increased productivity levels once an apprentice is qualified. So, go ahead and try it, it's the best thing we ever did!!

🌟 Internship Experience Summary 🌟 Hi Network, It feels like just yesterday that I began my internship at Amey, thanks to the wonderful colleagues I've had the pleasure of working with. As my time here draws to a close, I wanted to share the incredible journey I've had. Over the past two months, I've gained a wealth of knowledge and experience in various aspects of #linesidecivils. Here's a brief overview of what I've learned and accomplished: Week 1: I received a warm welcome, engaged in extensive training and certification and then Completed several learning modules to build a strong foundation. Week 2: Delved into the Boundary Measures module (1,2&3), Explored the Boundary Assessment CPD, Morley Lay-down Area Riser wall unit, Conducted Foundation analysis for lattice mast and TEH, Studied the PTS Handbook 2020 Issue 10 and a case study on Junction Lightening and Gained insights from the Knowledge Bank on the Carbon report (GRP vs Bonding). Week 3: Learned the Fundamentals of BIM & MicroStation Basics, Compiled a report on the carbon footprint of the office, Familiarized myself with three types of format reports and Undertook a Boundary Assessment Check. Week 4: Cross-checked Boundary Design and Platform Adjustment, Worked on data interpolation and performed a CAT2 check and Boundary Treatment Design Check for Area C. Week 5: Worked on W1 as-built drawings and Continued with Boundary Treatment Design Check for Area C. Week 6: Analysed GSMR Cost and Managed the Close Call Register. Lastly, for Week 7 that isn't over just yet, I have processed Change Request forms (ACRF). This internship has been a fantastic learning experience, and I am grateful for the opportunity to develop my skills and knowledge in such a supportive environment. I'm excited to continue learning and I'll be back with an update at the end of my internship. #InternshipExperience #ProfessionalGrowth #LearningJourney #EngineeringIntern #CareerDevelopment #Amey
