learned many other job and technological skills. I worked on the process of writing project documents, as well as other matters
related to IT projects and business processes. Attended meetings and discussions regarding infrastructure projects. Moreover,

As an infrastructure trainee, I have holistically studied various departments, beginning with the IT helpdesk, systems in the ministry’s environment, data centre, and security.
