THE RELEVANCE OF INDUSTRIAL WORK EXPERINCE TO SECRETARIAL STUDENTS (A CASE STUDY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF SECRTARIAL STUDIES IMT ENUGU

ABSTRACT

          The student’s industrial work experience scheme (SIWES) Relevance to the Department of Secretarial Studies was researched upon. The instruments used was questionnaire ands this questionnaire items were used to answer the research questions. The results were collected and analyzed in the chapters that make up this study

          Journals, Encyclopedia and project works of others scholars were used in the review of literature. Students of the department of secretarial studies of Institute of Management and Technology Enugu and (4) SIWES staff in Enugu were sampled and they constituted the respondents.

          Based on the analysis, Major findings emerged revealing that students did receive practical work on the job training. The SIWES scheme further exposes students to proper methods of using and handling secretarial equipments and development.

          However, the study concluded that if students are adequately exposed to research materials and facilities, if students are provided with thorough and proper supervision by supervisors, if orientation towards equipment and machinery handling was well fashioned out, there will necessary be an upsurge in  performance rates

          Therefore, the researcher recommends that following

          That employers ought to accept students supervisors need to be attached to individuals students. Students should be allowed to express and get themselves exposed to secretarial practices in order to acquire a deeper re-orientation before the commencement of the programme if adequate performance is to be guaranteed

CHAPTER ONE

1.0            INTRODUCTION

1.1     BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

          The student’s industrial work Experience Scheme (SIWES) is a programme designed to expose and prepare students in the institutions of Higher Learning for the Industrial work situation, how to relate to God and how to manage oneself. These they are likely to meet after graduation.

          The scheme affords students the opportunity of seeing familiarized and exposed to the needed experience in handling of machinery and equipment which are usually not available in the educational institutions.

          Furthermore, the scheme exposes the students to work methods and prepare them in safeguarding the work area and other workers in the industry.

          SIWES was introduced by the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) in Nigeria in (1973) about 31 years ago. It was then limited to students of technology. Today it has covered many disciplines and has  become a necessary recognition for the award of national diploma (ND) and Higher National Diploma (HND) in polytechnics in the country.

          A center focus of the scheme is to enlist and strengthen  employers involvement in the educational process of preparing students for the worlds of work. The scheme is therefore aimed at promoting the much-desired technological know-how ultimate goal of the scheme force needed to build a self-reliance economy.

          The following are SIWES relevance to secretarial studies.

          It provides opportunity for the researcher and co-students to gain experiences as a supplement to their students by this, the researcher’s writing in this project will be supervised by the supervisor who helps to direct on how to carry out any given task.

          It affords students the opportunity of being familiarized and exposed to the needed experience in secretarial studies.

          It exposes the researcher/students to real life situation thus supplementing the theoretical lessons in the classroom.

          It helps students to be acquainted to what nature of job they are likely to meet at the labor market.

          It broader the knowledge and understanding of the students in terms of each person to know more

          It is to prepare the researcher the participating students for better future use of their hand s and brain.

          It helps students to gather more information for difficult issues.

          It is one of the most task to take before graduating as a national diploma holder before enrolling for higher national diploma

          As a problems facing the department and a solution to it is to relate it to the people in charge for better result in due time for the life wire of secretarial; studies.

 

1.2     STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEMS

          It has been observed that some students have some misconception about the work experience programme of the I.T.F. some students for example, equate the programmer with holidays job. Hence the commitment is lacking and so the skills and experience to be gained cannot be acquired from the scheme.

          Again there is relevance among large number of employers to accept and provide facilities necessary for meaningful industrial experience to students. The fears of many employers are that students are inexperienced
