ABSTRACT RACHEL P. MERLAN ON-THE JOB TRAINING AT TANZA OASIS HOTEL AND RESORT MANAGEMENT, Diploma of Associate of hotel and restaurant management Cavite State University- Naic, Cavite. April, 2013. Adviser Mrs. Marilyn L. Tesorero.

On-the-job training is clearly defined as a basic practicum program for the student who is required to take it as a partial requirement on his/her chosen course. On this program, the trainee will practice their ability, skills and knowledge in order to apply it in future careers. With the supervision of an expert they will definitely enrich and develop their skills. This narrative report presents the student during on-the-job training. All the effort and learning are noted in this piece of work. This will also serve as future reference for the incoming student. On the job training or OJT is the one method by which student is given chance to apply the theories and computations that they have learned from the school. It also helps the students to acquire relevant knowledge and skills by performing in actual work setting. Colleges and universities require their student to undergo such training within a specific number of hours as part of the curriculum for the student, an OJT to go through actual methodologies of a specific job using the real tools, equipments and documents. In effect, the workplace becomes a development venue for a student trainee to learn more about his chosen field and practice what he has learn from academy. On the other hand, an effective OJT program also benefits the companies who accept trainees. First OJT or intern provides additional manpower for a lesser labor cost than a regular employee. Most of them are all eager to learn the ropes so chances are high that they will cooperate. Employers can use this internship strategy as a method in recruiting new employee. Since the trainer or the supervisor can follow the trainees progress, he can gauge based on performance, behavior and attitude if the trainee will make a good recruit after the

completion of his internship. On-the job training process can explain the meaning of the course Hotel and Restaurant Management through actual undergoes. Standard procedure should apply to whatever the trainee departed around the hotel sections such as Food and Beverage service, Housekeeping Department, Front office section or even stewardships and engineering. The actual training also aide the trainee to evaluate his/her if she/he is capable to the specific task given on the on-the-job training of the establishment. The realization after the training of the student is the process where they will feel that being in a hotel as staff is not as the way others see waiters in the restaurant, housekeeping making beds and other staffs action in the hotel is not just an ordinary profession.
