Co-op aka internship!!!!

Finally, my coop training has come. I've been feeling nervous yet excited, looking forward to this day. However, it really surprised me, or should I say, it shocked me, with all the hectic scheduled-trainings provided by my Department's manager. I never really expected I'd be required to undergo such stressful training because I heard the first coop will be rather easy and simple than the second and third. Now I'm doing the first placement, and I am being treated as though I'm gonna become their permanent operator as they are training me so intensively. *sigh* Nevertheless, I believe hard works do bear fruit. I am gonna learn a lot through the process although it's tough and suffering. =)


Anyway, I will describe a little on my independent projects here. My main project's title is basically on Machine Safety, so I will actually deal with SOP quite often. The main project consists of several parts:
- preparing SOP on Machinery Safety based on researches online and company itself
- arranging external parties training (work with H.R Department) - Machine Guarding with NIOSH 
- briefing manager from various departments on the SOP as assigned
- auditing (prepare audit checklist, conducting audit, review SOP, etc)
- identifying and taking photo of all machines and conveyor as well as their emergency buttons, hazard signage

Another project comprising several items:
- arranging Safety Lunch to operators on Electrical Tools Safety
- arranging external trainings on Noise Training to operators
- preparing SOP on Safety Knife and related one point lesson
- safety culture survey checklist & questionnaires
- safety culture information
- incident reporting 


Basically those are the scheduled tasks/projects for me to carry out within the timeline. I'm afraid if I couldn't get them done on time. >< Hopefully I can manage to go through all these smoothly and smoothly!!!! 


p/s: I miss lecture classes suddenly.....I finally can understand the difference between study and work.....I miss exams!! x(
