...Basic Combat Training Basic Combat Training, often referred to as just BCT, is the introduction Soldiers recieve as they enter the Army. It is often considered a life-changing experience, something that people remember, reflect on, and tell stories to their grand children about decades later. BCT is not easy...as we often say here, there is nothing basic about Basic Training. BCT takes 10 weeks to complete. Unlike schools which typically have between six and seven hours a day of teaching, the Army trains for about 12-14 hours a day, Monday through Saturday. We try to avoid too much sitting in a classroom...but it does happen: We also spend a little bit of time outside; getting some fresh and air and, when the opportunity presents itself, a little exercise: Traveling...by foot: Climbing ropes: And if you're good enough, graduating in front of your friends and Family! Week 0: Reception Soldiers complete administrative actions required to become part of the Army. Simple things such as medical examinations, setting up pay, and initial issue of equipment is completed. This process typically takes between two and three days but can take over a week in some cases. Weeks 1-3: Red Phase Welcome to BCT! Soldiers meet their Drill Sergeants and begin training. While often considered a difficult week for Soldiers due to the adjustments, it is actually pretty easy compared to later weeks. Most classroom-type training occurs in this period where Soldiers learn about: * Ballistics...

...Leah Dolce ECO 103 Mortgage Project While doing this project, I kept finding myself to be very indecisive as to what I wanted in a home and what things would be important to me if I were to purchase one. This project helped me understand the basics of buying a home such as: where I would want my kids to go to school, how many bedrooms, how many bathrooms, property, neighborhood reputation, and much more. I had very little knowledge about most of the surrounding area so now I know what kind of research I would have to do to make sure I know exatcly what I want when purchasing a home. I did know I wanted it to be at least 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and have an updated kitchen. I was able to find those things in the home I selected but what I didn't realize was what the cost would be. There is a huge financial difference between a 15 year fix and a 30 year fix mortgage. For the home I selected it was a $522.76 difference in the monthly payment and a $91,271.79 difference in the amount of interest I would be paying for the life of the loan. If I was abel to afford such a hefty, monthly payment I would choose the 15 year mortgage because in the long run it would be cheaper. The lesson learned here, though, is find a more affordable house and make updates as you go along. All -in-all I had fun doing this project and it helped me understand the process into buying a home and gave me great internet resources to do...

...SYNOPSIS TITLE OF THE PROJECT HOSTEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PROBLEM STATEMENT This project needs to create the Hostel Management System (HMS) to organize the rooms, mess, student’s record and the other information about the students. All hostels without HMS are managed manually by the hostel office. And hence there is a lot of strain on the person who are running the hostel. This particular project deals with the problems on managing a hostel and avoids the problem which occur when carried manually. INTRODUCTION In hostels without a HMS all the things have to be done manually. The Registration form verification to the different data processing are done manually. Thus there are a lot of repetitions which can be easily avoided. Identification of the drawbacks of the existing system leads to the designing of computerized system that will be compatible to the existing system with the system which is more user friendly and more GUI oriented. We can improve the efficiency of the system, thus overcome the drawbacks of the existing system. Hostel management gives on idea about how the students details, room allocation, mess expenditure are maintained in the particular concern. The hostel management system also includes some special features like How many students can live in a room, and the students of the hostel can be recognized from their ID number. The administration has the unique identity for each members as well as students details. The stock management...

...nonstop work. Startups are a counterexample to the rule that haste makes waste. (Too much money seems to be as bad for startups as too much time, so we don't give them much money either.) A week before Demo Day, we have a dress rehearsal called Rehearsal Day. At other Y Combinator events we allow outside guests, but not at Rehearsal Day. No one except the other founders gets to see the rehearsals. The presentations on Rehearsal Day are often pretty rough. But this is to be expected. We try to pick founders who are good at building things, not ones who are slick presenters. Some of the founders are just out of college, or even still in it, and have never spoken to a group of people they didn't already know. So we concentrate on the basics. On Demo Day each startup will only get ten minutes, so we encourage them to focus on just two goals: (a) explain what you're doing, and (b) explain why users will want it. That might sound easy, but it's not when the speakers have no experience presenting, and they're explaining technical matters to an audience that's mostly...

...Chapter 1 Introduction 1. Background of the Study: International organizations, policymakers, and scholars acknowledge the importance of universal education. Both public and private gains to investment in education are high: economic growth, individual earning potential, and health indicators are all positively correlated with education. Multiple forums, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, have recognized primary education as a human right. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization’s (UNESCO) Education for All movement set a goal of universal primary and secondary education by 2015, a target simultaneously established in the Millennium Development Goals. Public financing of education has been a priority for governments in developing countries for several decades. This is because education is perceived in modern societies as an important pillar of socioeconomic development. However, in recent years, the education sector has faced stronger competition from other sectors also seeking financial government support. In the budget for fiscal year 2011-2012 the government has proposed Tk 19,873 crore for education sector with Tk 10,850 crore for the Education ministry The proposed volume is Tk 1725 crore more than that of the allocation of Tk 18,148 crore in the fiscal year 2010-2011. In 2010-2011 fiscal year the allocation for the technical and vocational education was 233.64 crore which was 14.98% of total education development program...

...Introduction Wayne Mondy defines training as “Activities designed to provide learners with the knowledge and skills needed for their present jobs.” Training, therefore, is job specific and is concerned with the day to day performance improvement of the employee. Teaching a new employee hired for the R&D department the use of design software training or teaching a plant worker the operation of a machine constitutes training. Training is also project related. Suppose a new project has arrived at an organization and very few people possess the technical know-how to execute the project. They are then entrusted with the task of spreading the knowledge of the skills required and ensuring that the right people know the right things required to execute the project. This constitutes training. A newly promoted employee needs training to be able to fit into his/her new role and perform as expected. A technically competent designer may have been promoted to a managerial or executive job on request or due to exceptional performance. He may not be comfortable with the use of for example, MS Office. He will then require training for the same. Development is defined as “Learning that goes beyond today’s job and has a more long-term focus.” It prepares every employee to keep pace with the organization’s pace of growth. In today’s world, where customer focus and changing customer needs are the key drivers for growth, development plays a pivotal role. It looks towards enhancing or adapting...
