TrainerWell, at the very first time we have to be able to search for what news will attract audiences to watch our TV broadcast. Audiences like the latest and the hottest news. The news has to be real not fake. It has to be able to proven the facts.

Adam: You're absolutely right Mam. Audiences want something that exist not blur. They like some phenomenon that is different with what they commonly see. It reminds me when I reported a news about the sun storm. The data were taken from the astrology department with a huge telescope. The result was that most of the audiences like to watch the news and increase the channel's rating.

TrainerReporters have ethics too. We have to be polite when interviewing someone. We may not say something that is not fact. Don't judge any people we are interviewing. The audiences will underestimate the content of the news if we hyperbolize the situation into something out-of-logic.

AdamWhat should we prepare before we report news, Mam?

TrainerPlease make sure you have recording devices, notebook, and a pen. A camera or a video camera will be advantageous for you to record more detail news in the location.

AdamMiss, how to behave in a chaos situation. Sometimes I got very afraid of it. I just don't want to get injured. It happened when I reported a demonstration nearby the White House. 

TrainerIt's easy. Always bring your official ID card as a reporter. Then the police will always save you whenever the situation gets more horrible.

AdamOh I see. Thanks for your clear explanation.

The training session has passed. It's been challenging days for Ashley to have a training. In the new course she are working now, Ashley will prove her best works in handling student's registration, student's attendance, student's monthly fee, and the course promotion as well. 

AshleyGood morning. May I help you?
Customer: I'd like to register my son to this courseBut, at first time I'd like to know the learning and administration system here. 

AshleyHere, we have three levels of English Course for kids, Sir: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Each level has three sub levels: A, B, and C. The learning system is that we use various media such as learning equipments, computer, and the internet. We use the learning equipments for kids to know the visual of the materials that will be explained by the teachers here. We use the computers to let the kids playing with some programs designed for learning. We also use the internet for kids learning at home by visiting our website and choose the level they are in. May I know how old your son is, Sir? 

CustomerHe is 8 years old, Miss.

AshleyWell, let your son join a placement test to decide which level he will be. The registration fee is 100000 rupiah, Sir.

CustomerOh, here you are Miss.

Manager: Ashley, don't forget to check the student's attendance today. Give the report to me. Just put it on my table this afternoon. 

AshleyOk Sir. I will put it on your table. (Then Ashley makes a call to a parent whose son hasn't paid the monthly fee). Hello, STARKIDS English Course here. Ashley is speaking. Sir, I'm calling to remind that you haven't paid your son's monthly fee. When will you come here to pay it?

CustomerOh, thank you for reminding me, Miss. I will come as soon as possible. I will bring the money and pay it.

AshleyOkay, Sir. I'll be waiting here (Then it's time for Ashley doing something with the computer to design some brochures for promotion).

ManagerWow, nice design, Ashley. I like the words and the picture you've design. They're attractive. Keep going, Ashley. I will give you a job promotion if you are doing good works along these three months.

AshleyWow, thank you Sir. I will do as best as I can.

Manager: Good job. Can you attend a meeting this afternoon after lunch? We need your participation there.  

AshleyWell, as you wish, Sir. I will come this afternoon after lunch. What should I prepare for the meeting so that the result of the meeting will be satisfying, Sir?

ManagerGreat. Please print all student's report from the computer. We need those data for our business plan and promotion in order to increase the number of students here.

AshleyOkay, Sir. I will print all of necessary data for the meeting. 

Then immediately, Ashley prepare everything for the meeting. After having lunch, the business meeting is about to begin. All of the staff in the course gather around to discuss their business plan and strategies in promoting their course so that the number of students will increase significantly. They hold the meeting on the multimedia room on the 3rd floor. Each of the participant bring notebooks and laptops to make some important notes.

ManagerWell, we are gathering here to discuss our business plan and strategies in promotion. Ashley, have you printed the reports? Please give them and explain to me.

AshleyHere you are Sir. So, this month the number of students that registered to our course is about 50 students. That's because some rewards we gave such as discounts and prize for excellent students. If we hold a promotion such as giving tickets for their attendances, and then the tickets can be exchange into a prize, then the number of children who will register here will increase because we offer something that they like.

ManagerBrilliant, Ashley. I like your idea. Hope your idea will succeed in increasing the number of our students here. Thank you, Ashley. I like an experienced staff like you.

AshleyYou're welcome Sir. I'm happy to hear that.
