Yen - Batch 7
“I loved the sense of camaraderie that each of us interns has formed with each other due to the same challenges we were facing at the time. The Academy did not seem to be as daunting as we expected when we had each other’s shoulders to lean on.”
My advice for those who will be joining the Academy Program is to not be afraid to ask questions, whether they are for your co-interns or to the instructors. There’s always a lot to learn when you are in the Academy.
