Digital Talent Scholarship: A Good Place to Hone My Java Programming Skill

Digital Talent Scholarship is a competency development training program that has been given by the Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Information to improve Indonesian digital talent since 2018. In this training I received a scholarship to attend JAVA (Java Foundations & Java Programming) classes held by Petra Christian University as the partner in this training topic using Oracle Academy as the Learning Management System (LMS).

So how did I end up in this program? Probably many of you already know that I am not a big fan of programming language, since I usually spend my time in sketching and learning foreign languages (not programming).

First of all, to graduate from Petra Christian University, every student should be certified first (not just having a Certificate of Completion though, since you need to take certification exam). This actually overwhelming me, because I want to take UX Design Course in Coursera, but I need to spend a lot of money to finish it all (the faster I finish the course, the less money will be spent). Add it up to my time that I have to allocate to finish my thesis. That’s a horrible idea.
