Industry Partners’ feedback on the OJT performance of Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) Students

Abstract

This study determined the feedback of trainers/supervisors regarding the respondents’ personal, interpersonal and technical understanding skills in their on-the-job training (OJT) program using descriptive research design. The respondents of the study were 156 BSIT students enrolled in the OJT Program during the 2nd Semester of A.Y. 2018–2019 at Nueva Ecija University of Science Technology, San Isidro Campus. The findings of the study have shown that the students were excellent in numerous personal skills. Likewise, they were very good in most of their technical understanding skills which are hard skills in the field of Information Technology. Still, there were areas in which students’ performance need enhancement. Due to this, the researchers proposed a plan of action as an intervention to improve the program that would later result in the improvement of the students’ performance in their OJT.
