Bandar Seri Begawan - Thirty-eight job-seekers who completed a two-day course in Basic Accounting were presented with certificates of attendance recently.

The course was organised by the Career Resource Centre, Ministry of Education and KPMG a prominent accounting firm.

The training which was aimed at equipping job-seekers with the skill in basic accounting was conducted by Awg Hj Shazali bin Dato Sulaiman.

The certificates were presented by the guest of honour at the function, Hjh Donnaliza bte Abdullah Puasa, the Chairperson of the Career Resource Centre.

In her speech, she stressed the need for job-seekers to acquire new skills so as to increase their marketability in their search for job vacancies. Capabilities in the field of ICT, accounting and languages are qualities that need to be acquired, she added. She also thanked KPMG for fully sponsoring the course.

Earlier, in his opening remarks, Head of Career Resource Centre, Dr Ee Ah Meng, said job-seekers need to be proactive in seeking out jobs. Besides advertisements in the media, one should also look up the Yellow Pages and make the necessary inquiries or even walk into any organisation to seek out an appointment for an interview.

Job-seekers are also urged to attend any relevant course or accept any reasonable job offer that would provide them with some working experience. These are common qualities sought by potential employers.
