Work experience:
Mthokozisi Zungu has participated in an internship program offered by National Arts Council of South Africa for twelve months. NAC is an agency of the department of Arts and Culture. It specializes on promoting and growing arts across the country. Briefly it works and supports the success of the arts in South Africa. Mthokozisi worked at this organization as an arts development intern. He started working for NAC on 16 September 2019 and his contract expired on 15 of September 2020.
With the help, supervision, monitoring, and management of senior arts development officers, he grew his knowledge in arts. He acquired various skills pertaining administrative, writing, and reporting skills. Attending different meetings such as Social Cohesion and Nation Building as well as Capacity Building to count the few, taught him how to take and prepare minutes for the panel members. He has been given task to read, review, and edit the reports and memorandums to be submitted to CEO. He can also do the addendums for the beneficiaries and he is able to open the files for beneficiaries.
He worked on GMS with both rejected and approved projects for Arts Organization Support Funding (AOSF). Other skills he obtained, to call and remind beneficiaries about outstanding documents such as TCC, academic transcripts, and project progress report to count the few. NAC has introduced him into a more digitalized world since the organization is constantly growing in its technology. GMS is the only platform form applicants to make their applications. Manual application is no longer accepted, meaning the company is shifting with the change in technology.
Additional knowledge he obtained from the NAC is pertaining project itself. He now knows what a project is. He is able to distinguish between the good and not good project. Working with various projects of different themes, he is able to interpret different themes portrayed in different projects. South Africa is a multi-cultural society with lot of cultural expressions and identities. All of these dimensions are communicated and expressed through beautiful artistic works such as theatre pieces, dance, short stories, and paintings etc. Mthokozisi is now enlightened about many cultural backgrounds, cultural norms, and societal believes of different communities and racial groups. For him, arts is the mirror of what is happening in our daily lives.
Moreover, professionalism and punctuality was also part of the skills obtained from NAC. In terms of dressing to represent the organization and doing things professional in the office. Sending formal emails within the organization, to the colleagues and to the beneficiaries outside the organization. Calling the beneficiaries requires one to be professional to create the good image of the organization. Being on time at work and on meetings is one of the characteristics of punctuality. All those practices Mthokozisi learnt them from NAC.
