Technical Skills for Internship


I have learned a lot and I have been exposed to so much in the past 4-5 months at Year Up. I have improved my technical skills in the areas of providing technical support. I have been introduced to the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, Python) by some of the best programmers in the Silicon Valley. I earned high grades in my Computer Networking and Information Technology courses and I received hands on experience and training using the entire Microsoft Office Suite, Google applications such as, Google Docs and Google Groups. As a Quality Assurance student I have learned a lot about the Software Development Life Cycle, testing software and websites, as well as, creating websites using HTML and the LAMP stack. I believe that all of the above will be skills that I will use daily at my internship and possibly on the very first day. 

As I am approaching the end of Learning and Development phase and entered the Internship phase I am getting really anxious. Now that I know which company I will be interning at and what my role will be, I have to opportunity to research the company and speak with my tech instructor about anything I am unclear on.
