Inter Formal Proposal -- My Future in

¶ … Inter Formal Proposal -- my future in Informational Technology, my future in my internship at Benefit Concepts, Inc. Why I want to take part in an internship -- the benefits of Benefit Concepts, Inc. For my education, and the benefits I can bring to Benefit Concepts, Inc. It's time to come out of the comforting confines of studying information systems in the classroom and venture into the real world of information technology as it is deployed in the workplace.

Much as I have been gratified regarding the technical expertise that I have gleaned over my years of education, I look forward to putting those ideas and my education as a whole into real and vital practice in the world of business and work. My internship with Benefit Concepts, Inc. would be an ideal way for me to do this.

Not only would I have the benefit of receiving an education from a great company, but I would also learn how better to deploy my skills in a practical as well as a theoretical way, in the world of business. I would hope, ideally, to not only become an integral part of Benefit Concepts, Inc. through the work of my internship, but also prove a 'benefit' to the company by allowing it to make use of my growing my educational, technical, and personal development and competencies.

Moreover, as my internship would focus mainly on my capacity as an intern with the responsibility of serving as a 'troubleshooter' regarding any issues that might come up regarding Benefit Concept's databases, this internship would give me the additional capacity of giving me a social education in how to explain technology to lay people and technical people alike, as I would have to communicate any possible defects I detected in the system to my superiors.

I would not be merely confined to a cubicle, but also forced to hone and deploy my communication skills for the use of the company, and thus add an additional personal asset to my own resume -- that of a troubleshooter and communicator regarding technical issues, as well as someone merely proficient in their use. What I hope to gain over the course of my internship Over the course of my internship at Benefit Concepts, Inc., I will be responsible for processing the company's incoming and outgoing electronic eligibility files.

The software tools I will be using to fulfill this function will include, but not be limited to, that of Microsoft SQL Server 2000, Access 2000, Data Junction 7.5, DOS, as well as the larger technical and informational resources of the World Wide Web. Of course, as a result of this experience I hope to become more technically proficient in all of these programs, and more fluent in the range of information available to someone in the discipline of computer technology on the Internet.

Additionally, given my responsibility for viewing and detecting problems regarding the company's outgoing and ingoing files into its variety of databases, I hope to become more aware of protective devices to insure that things run smoothly with as little impingement from viruses, worms, and other hacking devices regarding data storage and warehousing. Thus, I hope to gain thus a greater knowledge.
