In late-2016, I started my career in Arcadis as a Senior Traction Power Engineer. My first involvement in my new role was to design the tender proposal of Melbourne Metro Private Public Partnership (PPP) project, the biggest rail project in Victoria. As an electrical engineer, I was assigned to deliver the tender designs for primary and secondary systems of station substations, traction substations, and intake substations.
As per Victorian government and joint venture regulations, we needed to meet the confidentiality requirements of the project, called the “Probity Plan”. This plan provided a framework with a robust set of procedures for delivery of services on the aforementioned projects with the aim to manage confidentiality and probity

According to the confidentiality requirements, in section 2, the followings shall be considered during the tender design:
a) Hold the Confidential Information in strict confidence and not disclose, or cause or permit, or take any action which would require the disclosure of the Confidential Information, except as permitted under this deed poll or with the prior written consent of the Beneficiaries;

My employment to a competitor company could potentially cause an unintentional breach of information. This could happen by involving in the tender design of the same project.
To further my investigations, I approached a partnership agreement lawyer, as was suggested in the training. I explained the situation in detail and described the expected performance in the potential employment. According to the compliance officer of the Joint Venture, my involvement in the same project with another competitor corporation would cause disclosure of design information (which is confidential information) to third parties. As such, he suggested me not to progress any further with this specific employment opportunity. Subsequently, I contacted the recruiter and advised him
Nowadays the concept of patient-centeredness plays an important role in high-quality health care. Patient-centeredness joins the care the patient is getting together with the care that the patient is willing to receive, giving therefore the patient a certain ethical authority. This particular approach to practice is built upon important concepts such as patient’s preferences respect, whole-person knowledge and creating an effective relationship between the patient and the clinician. These particular concepts might vary taking in consideration the condition of the patient and the patient himself. Patient-centeredness is also known as patient centered care. [1] [2]
The vendors will outline how the work will be accomplished, who will perform the work, and vendors experience in providing the service. Additionally, the vendors will be required to submit work breakdown structures (WBSs) as the hierarchy structure below and work schedules to show their understanding of the work to be performed and their ability to meet the project schedule. There are constraints to be included in the RFP and communicated to all vendors in order to determine their ability to operate within these constraints. The project schedule is not flexible and the contractor must complete the service within the established project schedule of 1 year. The contractor must support the approved project scope statement.
There are extensive studies on retirement covering education in general. The findings suggest that education is an important factor in affecting retirement planning preparedness (Hogarth, 1985; Joo&Pauwels, 2002). Education enables individuals to explore more information relating to their retirement planning and that sources of information will influence their decisions, attitude and intention to do retirement planning (Hogarth, 1985; Joo&Pauwels, 2002). Also, DeVaney (1995) addressed that the effect of education level may serve as a motivator or guidance for individuals to start the preparation for retirement planning. With the increase in age and educational level, individual tends to be more motivated to work on retirement planning preparation or take some action for their retirement (DeVaney, 1995).

As a seventh grade student, I took a science course because it was required. At first I was scared about how well I would do and if I would get a good grade throughout the year. When the school year started, I met my teacher and he seemed really nice and he turned out to be an awesome teacher. I excelled in my science seven class and overthrew my fear of getting poor grades. My seventh grade year was the year I determined what I wanted to go to college for and that would be life science education. As I moved up the scale throughout high school I became a better student, a better athlete, and a better leader. I had the support of my family, my teachers and my friends. This helped me achieve the major goals I had set out for myself.

Criticisms First criticism that can be applied on the theory of imagery rehearsal therapy is that it is based on the notion that chronic nightmares in PTSD are a learned behavior. This was explained by the classical conditioning theory of learning. This theory is often perceived as too simplistic and deterministic. People are more complicated than animals (Pavlov’s dogs), there are certain typical cognitive schemas that are one of the major characteristics of human beings and some other learning theories take into account the human complex nature; e.g. classical conditioning model can be upgraded by the reinforcement and punishment model. The trauma is therefore the cause of the negative cognitive schema.
Performance management is a process that guarantees an organisation and all of its available resources are working collectively and effectively towards achieving the organisation’s mission or goal. Performance management affords an understanding of what drives an individuals, and even organisations, performance at all levels. An understanding of performance management allows for the identification and minimisation of unproductive areas of an organisation, as well as an ability to predict future performance. It is a powerful tool that can be used by managers at all levels of an organisation to help improve a company’s productivity.
My ideal future would be being able to travel to places where I’ve been as well as to places where I haven’t been. I’d imagine myself being happy because I’d have everything I’ve ever wanted. Getting married, buying a house- even if it were a small house with only a few bedrooms in a quiet neighbourhood. After buying a house(,) I’d have a child so that I could spoil them the way my parents spoiled me. In my ideal future(,) I would work at home so that I could be able to spend time with my family I would be my own boss. On my spare time that I would have I would start a an animal shelter one in a foreign country I would help stray animals have a home, people who can not afford to have pets could come play with dogs and cats as well as adopt them. I’d also keep myself entertained by being activite and having my own gymnastics gym.
When planning for our future it is important to have clear goals in mind and to understand the steps that need to be taken to achieve those goals. My long-term goal is to run my own counseling center and employee at least one other person. Some Skills I already possess that will allow me to succeed with this plan are my ability to relate to people and be consistent in following the steps needed, even though it will be a long and tedious process.
