I am 19 years old Joni Salmi from Seinäjoki. Computers, games and all electronics have been my great passion since childhood. In comprehensive school, I applied for a study place at the Sedu Education Center, Koulukatu teaching point. I studied information and communication technology there for three years and in the summer of 2015 I graduated as a computer scientist with a scholarship and everything. Earlier, I had resolutely applied to the Kainuu Brigade when I was called up. As conscription approached, I heard more about civilian service and its benefits. As a result, I later applied for civilian service.
My civilian service training period in Lapinjärvi lasted four weeks, after which I started my year-long service here in Liiveri starting on November 2, 2015. My work tasks are well suited to my profession and include IT tasks, making brochures, folding and translating work, and working in office tasks. I am looking forward to what the coming year will bring in terms of nice colleagues and a working environment!
