Quoting one of the few female graduates, Syra Olivia Rayner, she mentioned about the importance of the vital processes learnt in KTC in performing her tasks in the oil & gas industry. Syra secured a job as an instrumentation technician for a local company in offshore projects quickly after her completion of the training programme, which proves the credibility of a KTC graduate in the Oil & Gas industry.
“Being the only female at my workplace, it is not difficult for me to adjust to my new working environment including working on platforms, because I love working outdoors. Working in oil and gas industry demands teamwork spirit since our skills improvement requires helps from others,” she explained.
