Work Experience
Rivergreen Centre Durham - Brian Dougherty
brian.dougherty@durham.gov.uk
I was given the opportunity to work in a real web development environment and was given some tasks to improve the current Durham County website. I was also brought to some meetings and shown some development techniques.

Durham County Council – Computer Support and Network Maintenance
I gained a lot of experience from this as I did so many activities such as building some Dell computers and installing an operating system from the servers then traveling to various locations around Durham such as a Foster Home and a small office building where we setup the computers and linked them in a network. I was also shown how the servers at the Durham County Council were linked around the entire building and we went to call outs around the building to replace computer parts or just to fix general tech issues.

Department of Anthropology, Durham University - Patricia Barber
patricia.barber@durham.ac.uk
In the offices of the Durham University Anthropology Department I was given clerical work such as typing emails, writing and delivering letters to the student mailboxes and setting calendar events on the network. I also helped some students with information over the desk who asked for directions or who needed something from the office.

ABC Scaffolding Durham
I worked in the offices of ABC Scaffolding and was shown how to manage data entry into their Oracle database as well as how they handle invoices. I was also asked to create a form which the business could use to assess safety in the workplace in Microsoft Word.

Marks and Spencer’s Durham
I worked on the shop floor restocking and facing up the store front, I also had to assist customers with finding products or remove any out of date or broken products from the shelves. At the end of the experience I was asked to prepare a presentation to present to the staff showing how the business could  save money and create a larger profit margin.
