 PREFACE

On the job training is not a mere requirement to be able to finish study or to be able
to graduate. On the job training is not just something you spend time out of campus
claiming you are free while studying. On the job training is the most important part of being
a college student. It tests how well you were taught and how well you adopted every lesson
our dear professor taught. It would also be able to show how well you could do on the real
field of your study, not just mentally but also how you do through actions. This would also
help you make decisions if ever your chosen career path is compatible with who you are
and what you wanted to be.
Being in a prestige OJT site as said by some mean you are better than others. This notion
must never be in any practicumer’s mind because no matter where you trained, locally or
internationally, you, as a student could still excel and be developed into a better person no
matter where your site is. Developing oneself deeply lies on their selves itself. Prestige
sites would only give you better opportunity and exposures. Technological advances will
be witnessed, high-end experiences and fancy picturesque environment, but at the end of
the day, what you learned and how well you developed is what matters.
This OJT aims for practicumers to be able to achieve the following objectives;
• To be able to acquire practical knowledge, skills and desirable attitude and value in
reputable sites they would come from.
• To be able to enhance competencies by applying learned concept, theories and
skills. Additional to this is to be able to learn and build network with experienced
professionals.
• To earn credits for rendered hours in the host establishment.
• To be able to identify future career direction and become candidate for future job
openings
Achieving this goal will greatly mean you succeeded with the training. Not just by counting
the hours you rendered but also treasuring every hour making sure to have and learn
something as time passes and goes. For as this opportunity ends, it can no longer be
rewinded nor redone again.
