Yee Ping’s blueprint for success in Civil Construction Design

In my home country Malaysia, I worked as a Frozen Retail Administrator. I later moved to Singapore, where I was employed at a major retail supermarket chain and was responsible for overseeing the operations of the frozen food department.

What course did you choose?

I studied the RII60520 Advanced Diploma of Civil Construction Design at Munster campus to build upon my experience as a construction tradesperson. My goal is to enhance my skills and advance my career in the construction industry by gaining deeper knowledge in civil design and engineering practices.

What career path are you planning to pursue?

I am seeking a career opportunity as a Civil Drafter to apply and further develop my technical skills in civil design and drafting.

How long have you been living in Perth?

I have been living in Perth for nearly six years, and I find it to be a positive and supportive environment for international students and professionals. Unlike other cities with a fast-paced lifestyle, Perth offers a balanced atmosphere that is conducive to both study and work.

Do you have any advice for students who are considering studying a course like yours at TAFE?

It is important to consider your original career pathway and seek opportunities that align with your previous experience and qualifications. In Australia, securing an entry-level position can be challenging, so pursuing a career that matches your background can improve your chances of success.
