INTRODUCTION
On the Job Training of OJT is one method by which students is given a 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 the actual work setting. Colleges and
Universities require their students to undergo such training with a specific number of hours as
part of the curriculum.
On-the-job training (OJT) is one of the best training methods because it is planned,
organized, and conducted at the employees worksite. OJT will generally be the primary method
used or broadening employee skills and increasing productivity. It is particularly appropriate for
the developing proficiency skills unique to an employees job especially job that is relatively
easy to learn and require locally-owned equipment and facilities.
For the students, an OJT or internship program provides opportunities to go through the
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/her
chosen field practice what he/she has learn from academy.
On the other hand, an effective OJT program also benefits the company who accepts
trainees. First OJT or intern provides additional manpower for a lesser labor cost than a regular
employee. Most of them are 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 employees.
Since the trainer or the supervisor can follow the trainees progress, he/she can gauge based on
performance, behavior and attitude if the trainee will make a good recruit after the completion of
his/her internship.
OJTs can bring fresh ideas into the organization. Given the opportunity to speak their
minds freely and without fear, they may be able to contribute significantly in brainstorming
sessions or research and eventually help improve organizations productivity. While training the
intern, employers are in fact also teaching their employees to process of guiding the trainees
stretches their patience, develops teaching skills and makes more sensitive to the needs and mind
set of the younger generation. The course of supervision also teaches them how to share what
they know and be receptive to questions. Hence, the internship also becomes an avenue in
training for the future managers of the company.
Accommodating on-the-job trainees can truly be beneficial not only to the trainees but
also to the companies in that provide opportunities for this type of learning. There is wisdom in
the front lines. Such training can be investment that will be valuable to the company later on.
This is also why trainees should take their internship seriously as it can become a powerful tool
and possibly even a source of recommendation when they take that big lift from being students to
career professionals.

II.

Program
Being a BS Instrumentation and Control Engineering student, we learned some of our

major fields like pneumatics and hydraulics. This enhances our knowledge about pneumatics,
hydraulic actuators, calibrating sensors and electrical diagram. We had the opportunity to
dismantle and repair some of the actuators used in the field. We may not totally encounter some
field in our training but we learned not only for our field but also other field. This may help us to
gain more knowledge that can be applied not only for our course but also in the other field and
courses.
