Cleaning Day

Charity Hairdressing Night

          On 19th of November 2011, from 6:30-10pm PSE was organized the first French hairdressing night ever in Cambodia and I also had a chance to join this party because I need to help the teacher to record the contact information of the guests when they taken the photo, so PSE will send their photo later to their email or call to their phone number. In that party there was three very famous French stylists demonstrated their amazing skills to the audience and the guests.

            I feel very happy that I can join this party because the other guest must pay $25 each and $30 for the VIP seats but they also get the GALA Dinner with the fashion show, live music and dance floor. Many people especially the rich people join this party and they are look very professional and wealthy. Moreover, most of the PSE staffs also join this party because they want to help the poor children and one reason more is that they get the discount price for 50% from PSE to each but exactly they want to join the very amazing party like Charity Hairdressing Night. PSE have sponsored by SERGE COMTESSE, DECO-LYCRA.COM, SUN Supermodel, Lotus Blanc Restaurant and other… This party organized to earn the profit for helping the poor children of PSE. I was very amazing about the action of that party because I never seen the very interested party like this before. After finished the fashion show all the guests enjoy take the photo with the fashion star so I need to record the guests name, phone number and email to send their photos back and it the picture that make the guests feeling feel love it and it seem to give their photos as the souvenir from PSE and make them want to join another party or this party again, so PSE will earn the profit more to feed and to help the poor students.

            I saw many smiling face and the satisfaction from the customer idea, they said that they will join all the party that PSE organize because they want to sponsor the poor children. For me I love to help PSE as I can do like I worked in that party.

Announcement to find sport player for PSE activity

            To make all the students release their stress, all the directors of PSE made an announcement to all the students who wanted to play their favorite sport to refresh during study day to join the sport club of PSE.

            An announcement raised by Mr. La Vibol, the manager of Vocational training center, said that “PSE created this activity for all the students who wanted to play their favorite sport because we don’t want to see the students of PSE got stress during study day and we want all students be in good health”. The condition to join this activity, student has to sign in and register to Mr. Ratanak or teacher in charge to make sure how many members and how to divide the sport players by groups. If someone joins one of their favorite sports he/she must come to play all the time by schedule, no absent and one student can join only one sport. “Sport is very important because sport can make people stronger, flexible and sport can make people know each other and got peace, sport also can make people reduce their stress because when you play sport all the pollution in your body will be coming out, all your anger also coming out”, Mr. La Vibol said.

            That is why PSE try to create many activity like ESAP, monitored by Lulu and Mr. Soda Chan to create an activity for students. PSE try to push and motivate students to play sport because sport is very important and sport can provide us many advantages.

            For my own opinion, I think this announcement and this activity is very nice for all students because sport can make students feel refresh and feel good for their study. And I will join this activity because I want to get good health for my study and also for my future.

One province one product

        On 15^th - 18^th of December 2011 in Koh Pich has an event. It is one Province, one product that comes from everywhere in Cambodia and other countries, such as: Thailand, Vietnam, Lao and Myanmar.

         The 6^th Cambodia import-Export 7 One Province one product exhibition 2011 plus ACMCS is entering a new era with the inclusion of the ACMECS economic cooperation framework for the first time. One more thing, they get the products from each province in their country that the product represents about their village and province. In Cambodia, we get the products from the village and one product represents one village and it shows about their habit of their village also. 

         Why they show about their product? Because they want to make people realize about their product and just see the product and know where the product come from. For example Kompong Cham province sold bean and Kompong Speu province sold cabbage and Sieam Reap province sold one beauty car. When customer see this product, they will know that where it come from. For Thailand they sold about kind of the lotions, soap, perfume, jewelry, clothes, shoes, can food, etc. 

      The purpose of this even, the first they want to make people know about their product where it come from because one product represent one village and the second for market survey. They want to measure about the consumer behavior of Cambodian people how many people use these products? Now in Cambodia has this products or not yet? Do Cambodian people like to use? And how can attract people to buy it? The third, they want to sale amount of money from customer immediately.
      I think that it is very good for all the people in Cambodia to know about another country’s product and know about culture of them that what product come from and for me I just shop around and buy a little bit products to test it at home by myself. I hope that next years I can visit it again.

Administration and Accounting Skill For Technical High School in Business School

Mr. Kim Chanthorn at HR Event Party

PSE Vocational Training Center has many major skills that were designed and created for different level students, coming from various levels in Preparatory Class Program in order to catch up the bright future for their lifelong gift to help themselves and their families, compassionately.

Historically, Administration and Accounting, for medium level students, are the core skill, which were created in 2011, but, in the first name, it was known and called Secretary Training that was completely established in 2000; since then it was changed its name to Business School in 2009.

BM2A group discussion and self-learning

According to the labor market change, the course duration and internship program, therefore, were conducted to strongly stimulate student's competency based on the market's need; however, it still needs more vital programs to have completed its students' abilities and appearance the committee of Business School has made the contract with its human resource partners to set internship program for them to learn how to treat themselves at working environment, collaboratively. The internship program has been prepared for the student in three periods of time, namely, first internship in Preparatory Class Program has one month which is started in August, second internship in Vocational Training Program has two months from the beginning of June to the end of July, and the last internship in Vocational Training Program also has three months starting from September to the end of November. So that the student will have enough time to practice the theory they have learnt so far into the real environmental work, and they will know about their personal trait after having such that program,comparably. In purpose to learn in this skill, students have to complete some criteria required by the school policy such as they all at least have minimum age of 17 years old, a completed secondary school student, and a graduated  P3 class student; they all wanting to be a student must know about their personality and be willing to study in this skill, satisfactorily.

Professional Life Training Discussion

Otherwise, Business School Committee has also deemed about the programs and facilities to put in the course for the students to enlarge their thought through the technical subjects that in year 1 students will carefully be instructed with official administrative task such as set the priority task and to-do-list, plan activities, work closely in commercial environment, handle telephone call, conduct the meeting, and take minute, etc. In year 2 of the final year, students will potentially be taught the career management to behave themselves very well within the office environment, manage stock, arrange business travel, and some specified task in administration and accounting such as dealing with accounting issues in software program (Peach-tree and Quick Book program), analyzing  and recording business transactions in general journals, posting all records to general ledger, and releasing statement of finance. Likewise, it is not enough to fulfill the qualification of student, so there are many general subjects to supplement the whole course, namely, English to help them improve their international language to easily adapt themselves into working environment, French, Mathematics for business, Khmer, Computer skills (Ms. access and photo shop), and sport that needed to keep them healthy. so they will have a good health to learn so well.

CV and Cover Letter Correction

However, the important course needed to coordinate them is Professional Life Training (PLT), being taught by the professor, working in Public Relation Office (PRO) to help them to know more clearly about the working environment, how to behave in which they will have been employed, how to find the job, and how to be well-prepared  in their working, professionally.

Final Graduation Year Party

Nevertheless, to be more clearly when they learnt the theory in the class, Business School Committee has completely established two more extra programs for student's practising such as KYOL Company for the year 1 student and Retail Shop, a real working place in which student can physically perform to supply the hygiene products to each department that is concerned with this product, and office and study materials are also supported to the internal department of PSE, requiring year 2 student.

Consequently, during the two years in attending this school, the Administration and Accounting student will be able to work in diversified positions concerning with administrative tasks such as being an office assistant, administrative assistant, secretary, or accountant; thus, the students who are educated from this valuable skill will be the sources and good assets of the company or organization, looking for the professional, competent, and honest personnel can precisely be our good human resource partner, candidly.

Indochina Research Conference at PSE by Mr. Laurent Notin

Pour un Sourire d’Enfant hosted an exceptional conference about Market Research on Friday January 14th, 2011.

Thanks to the Indochina Research that was offering the opportunity for 20 students from High-Level Business School (BH3 and BH2) and the students from RULE (Royal University Law Economic) were able to enjoy the presence of Mr. Laurent Notin, Director of Indochina Research in Cambodia. He offered the students a two-hour conference with a questions and answers session.

Miss Eléonore Iriart, Marketing Professor, Mr. Ban Vithou, Marketing instructor and also the professors from RULE, helped to organize this event at PSE and attended the conference.

It was a great opportunity for both teachers and students at PSE and students from RULE to feel for the expectations in terms of Market Research expected from Indochina Research Company and to be exposed to an experienced professional in Market Research of Indochina Research Company.

Mr. Laurent Notin said that Market Research is about listening to people, analysing the information to help organisations make better decisions and reduce risks. Market research is not only about collecting data using questionnaires; it is also about analysing and interpreting that data to build information and knowledge for clients. The right decision to be made is a decision that reduces risks and the best decision for the client’s business. Mr. Laurent Notin told us that before you do Market Research, you must set up your objective by asking yourself that “What do you want to know? And Why do you want to know this?” this is the clue for doing Market Research. He tells the Top 3 channels watched most often by Cambodian people (aged-15 to 50): 1. CTN, 2. MyTV, 3. TV5 and Top 3 people who influence the most any purchase decision making: 1. Family, 2.Friend, 3. Sales representatives this is the source of IRL Media Index Survey (December 2010). He also shows the tip to do research, always start from the 5Ws & 1 H such as: What? When? Where? Who? Why? And How? The process of Research in Brief is define the client issue(s), understanding the decision to be made, set up the objective and then develop the research plan after that, conduct fieldwork & quality control and conduct data entry & quality control next, you conduct analysis & reporting. And then, top line presentation & delivery of a comprehensive report. Finally, you will have management decision about your research. The market research industry sets high professional and ethical standards. Effective market research depends on public confidence (because public is the main source of information): confidence that research is carried out honestly and confidence that anonymity of respondents is 100% guaranteed. This confidence is supported by professional codes of practice, which govern the way market research projects are conducted. For example: Today, ESOMAR and the International Chamber of Commerce promote the ICC/ESOMAR International Code of Market and Social Research Practice which is the global umbrella code governing the way that market research is conducted around the globe.  More than 5,000 members of ESOMAR are committed.
