Erasmus trainee Romana from Austria on work placement in Belfast using the co working space at Mallusk Enterprise Park
What I want to learn in Northern Ireland
I am doing an Erasmus placement abroad for one month in Belfast at the company: Watson and Co. Chartered Marketing founded by Chartered Marketer: Christine Watson.
Our workplace is in the Belfast Central Library  at the 6nd floor ‘creative space’. Here we have a beautiful view over the city.
At the first day Christine told Michelle and me in the Mac Cafe about our Workplace and about our different task.
My learning goals
During my time in Belfast, Northern Ireland I want to learn new skills – from Canva Pro and Social Media marketing to how to use Twitter and much more. One of my learning objectives is also to improve my English language skills – both written and verbal.
By the end of my traineeship month I would like to know how to take and edit photos and videos better than I currently do. To achieve this I will attend the various free today at apple courses  which are available at the Apple store in Victoria Square shopping centre in Belfast City Centre.
I found out about these learning opportunities through my placement host and trainer Christine Watson who set up Trainingmatchmaker.com to curate courses like these to inspire people to learn and to keep learning.   My Today at Apple course choices:
I would also like to learn how to properly deal with customers in the marketing industry. My placement host Christine is also a customer service trainer and she has kindly offered me the opportunity to complete the WorldHost principles of customer service course and the chance to be awarded a certificate that has been achieved by over one million service professionals worldwide.
One other really important thing for me is to learn how to write a blog and what you have to consider when creating and publishing online content. Because if I learn this I can write many interesting and funny blogs about my time in Northern Ireland.
