Today, we had our first day of training with the IOC. They taught us what we would be doing over the next few weeks!
For those who may not know, we are on a short-term study abroad program with school and our purpose is to collect data on security, seating, and transportation that the IOC can use to plan future games. At our training today, we learned how to gather the necessary information and input it into the app they use for this data collection.
After our initial training, we got to go wander around the Olympic park. It was surreal to be in an area that so many people dream of seeing firsthand.
We spent that night doing our first data collection as a group at Ski Jumping. I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to be so close to where everything happens and to be part of this team that is helping to improve future Games.
