I have been preparing for my future work through studying at various courses and been involved in various activities that involve giving back to the community. The developing environment in Saudi Arabia has been motivating me to participate in community work, especially at this time that Saudi Arabia is experiencing major community developments in its infrastructure. Education and academic services are the major areas of infrastructural development in Saudi Arabia. These developments occur through activities such as the establishment of new schools, modernization of learning curriculum, acquisition of more experienced staff, and training sessions with existing faculty. In a few years, community services in Saudi Arabia have been experiencing a huge boom that encourages service providers to engage in many activities involving community services.

I believe that the best service that one can give to people is helping them adequately using your knowledge and skills. We all understand that the community contributes significantly to the success of our lives and our careers. However, very few of us realize the contribution and the great need to contribute back to the community. As a result, the community is experiencing several problems like a high level of poverty, food insecurity, conflicts and wars, social crime, lower health care services, and a high level of illiteracy. Therefore, the community is in great need of people who have experience and skills by contributing appropriately to the different needs of the community.

To achieve my objectives of contributing back to the community, I decided to pursue my Bachelor’s Degree in Public Administration from King Khalid University in&nbsp.Saudi Arabia that I obtained in 2010. The Bachelor’s course had a significant contribution to my skills, knowledge, and understanding of some basics in a different area. For example, I leant basic concepts in the management of the community and economic theories applied in community service. It was also important to understand social policies that exist in society and their effect on the community.
