Residents from the islands of Tinian and Rota received a chance to advance their leadership and media skills thanks to the 4-H Saipan Youth Council, 4-H Marianas, and the Northern Marianas College\u2019s Cooperative Research, Extension, and Education Services-Family, Community, and Youth Development Program.<\/p>\n

The 29 participants learned about time management, preparing a r\u00e9sum\u00e9, interview etiquette, public speaking, and preparing for college. Additionally, members of 4-H Marianas\u2019 production club taught the students the basics of photography, videography, graphic design, and media communications.<\/p>\n

Elaiza Songco, a Tinian resident, said she is glad to have been able to participate.<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt really great about today\u2019s training because I met a lot of new friends,\u201d Songco said. \u201cWe learned a lot about time management, a lot about college preparations, and other information that we\u2019re going to be using in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

The skills taught at both workshops were designed to help Tinian and Rota students effectively market the 4-H activities happening on their islands, and to better showcase them in the CNMI and the nation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
