Probation
Probationary period was when probates capabilities and commitment were assessed. It was also a chance for us to experience what council members do. In the end, only a few could become an official member of council.
Starting off everything was alien to me, I was uncertain could I pull my task off. However, amidst the insecurities it was when I found confidence and certainties that motivates me to give my best shots while driving forward.
Task 1
Writing an event proposal
Probates were separated into teams and tasked to write an event proposal. The best proposal will be carried out as an actual event. Writing a proposal was quite new to a lot of us so we did make some mistakes. However, the members gave us constructive feedbacks and we learned from that.
Task 2.1
Writing a bulleted list
This is a SW task. Individually we had to summarize 2 articles about the FMCO into a bulleted list as if its a preparation to inform students about the guidelines. The points included must be related to students. Later this list will be used by us to design Instagram posts consisting of the points in the list.
Task 2.2
Student Welfare Committee Meeting ( mock )
The Student Welfare Committee Meeting or SWCM is a meeting between student bodies and management to discuss students' concerns. In a team, we had to prepare points and attend a mock SWCM with the SW departments members role-playing as the management. We had to fight for the students' rights by addressing their concerns.
The meeting was conducted in discords.

Task 3.1
Plan an Instagram Reel
This is a PR task. In a team, we were required to plan an Instagram reel about any topics. We must include details like how to publicize it and how will it be filmed. Then the plan must be presented to the PR members. Our reel content was about eye care, which we hope to educate students about eye care.

Task 3.2
Marketing Plan
In the same team, we also have to think about how to publicize TCSC by planning an interesting Instagram story. The story must be interactive so students feel engaged and would be more likely to approach TCSC.Â
Our story content was about bizarre places on earth.

Task 3.3
Post Designing
Using the bulleted list we made in task 2.1, we designed our own Instagram posts by using the contents from the list.
Task 4
Executing an event
It was time for us to execute an actual event for students. I was fortunately chosen as the assistant project manager. The event executed was from the proposal of my project manager's team. It's about a virtual escape room. The preparation however was challenging as there were many things to do, plus neither of us executed a virtual event before. Thankfully we were given guidance from the TCSC members.
In the end, the event was successfully conducted although there were minor errors. Most importantly we learned a lot from the TCSC members' comments.
That also marked the end of our probationary period.
