ASSESSMENT OF SIWES RELEVANCE TO BUSINESS EDUCATION PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES

SIWES – the students Industrial Work Experience Scheme stands out as one ITF programme of which its relevant to students in various areas of vocational education need be appreciated. ITF in 1973/1974 established SIWES to ensure the acquisition of relevant industrial work experience by university, polytechnics and college of education students whose course are directly related to industry and to solve the problem of lack of adequate practical skills preparatory for employment in industries by Nigerian graduates of tertiary institution.

SIWES is a cooperative internship programme, which enable students of technology to spent some part of their course for relevant on-the job training practical experience in appropriate areas of the Nigerian industry. The internship programme, SIWES, can therefore be seen as that which is intended to give Nigerian students studying, occupationally related courses experience that would supplement their theoretical learning.

SIWES data are now submitted through on-line system and payment of allowance to the students is made through e-payment. The student can now check their record with the use of www.siwesdata.org. This opens a window for each participating student and institution. Student can now verify their records entered by the institution on his or her behalf. Every student should collect password from SIWES unit in order to access this.

All relevant forms can easily be downloaded from the website. Student cannot edit the information without routing such edit requests through their institution.
