Again, another busy day at the office at dta WORLDWIDE yesterday, on day 4.  The majority of the day was spent doing some major changes on the dta website.  Although it is a long process, it needed to be done and the end result is great.  The changes make the website look a lot better, easier to navigate and understand.  Loads of new links have been added as well, and the home page has been completely transformed.  I think that it all looks really good, and hope that you agree!

Some other things I did yesterday included learning about invoicing; how to process them through the computer and send them off to the client, and of course some more accounting!  Most of day 4, though, was mainly focussed on improving the website, which continues today on day 5.  You can have a look at the changes, and read about them when I am back in the office on Monday.

Yesterday was another busy day at dta WORLDWIDE on my work experience at the headquaters.  After the usual accounting necessities out of the way, I was taught how to score the interactionPROFILEs in preparation for a course being delivered by a client.  Using the scoreBOARD software, the results were analysed and scored for each person.  I then packed them into envolopes ready to be sent off and delivered to the participants.  We also set up a new leadershipPROFILE for a client.  Then I helped to write a proposal and learnt about what it is for and how to make it effective and appealing.

Afterwards, I continued with the reconstruction of the website. I added many new links and sections to explore and learn more about what dta does, so you can take a look at those.  The hits have been going up and we hope that it can continue!  The reconstruction is still in progress today on day 4, which you can read about tomorrow.

It was day 2 at dta yesterday, and I have learnt just as much as the first day, and been busy again.  After doing a little bit more updating of the accounts, I was eager to check how many more responses had been completed for my interactionPROFILE that I set up for myself on day 1.  I was also taught how to track the scoring of other projects and what to look for in the data that was there.

Later on in the day I made up some more salesFLEX workbooks.  After that, the rest of the day was mostly spent working on the dta WORLDWIDE website.  The boss and I looked at who and where the hits from the website had been coming from and set to work on a bit of reconstruction on parts of the site that could be improved.  I added some more references to the testimonials page about the work that dta have done for their recent clients, added a place for you to send a message to dta, and even added a tip of the week to get you thinking. 

Another busy day today on day 3, which you can read about tomorrow.

Hi, my name is Ben and I’ve been hired for the week to work with dta WORLDWIDE at the Headquaters in Australia.  I am in year 10 and doing work experience with dta, learning about the company and helping out around the office.  Yesterday was my first day, and first of all I had a full run-down from the boss about what the company does and how it is run.  I helped out with some accounting, and learnt about the different assessments and courses.  Later on I made up some workbooks for an upcoming course.

My first day was a very interesting experience in which I learned how much work goes into the business and how it operates.  I learned a lot about how companies are run and how they interact with clients.  My day at the office today is sure to bring more new things to do and learn about.  You can read about those tomorrow.
