Assessment of the OJT


A. New knowledge, attitudes, and skills acquired
On-the-job training is a form of individualized training and allows the
individual requiring training to receive the necessary knowledge and to develop
the required skills on the job.
They say that nothing beats experience, as my professor would say, as the
perfect learning tool. For some students, on-the-job training gives them a taste of
the real world a glimpse of what lies ahead after they graduate. One of the most
important things Ive learned is that talent alone is not enough. It is important, but
it is no guarantee of success. One must also be hardworking and should practice
self-discipline. Sacrifice is important, too.
The training inside the company is learning experience each day. I was able to
understand that everything that was thought inside the school can be a tool that
can be used in future career. As I was working as a trainee at CEO, I learned to
become a hard-working person. Time to complete the output product is
not important, but the quality. I also learned to follow the instructions as what the
superiors said and to accept opinion that they suggested. At the school, being late
is better than absent. But as what I learned, being absent is better than being late.
Being absent can be a cause of emergency situations like sickness, unpredicted
travels and phenomena, while, being late is a cause of misbehavior and unable to
manage the time. Lastly, I learned that on-the-job training is not just only a
subject to be passed or a requirement to be completed but on-the-job training is an
opportunity to show what skills, talents and techniques that the student learned
from the school and also an opportunity to experience the life outside thecampus;
serving companies like a professional on the field of the students specialization.

B. Theories actually seen in practice


In the traditional, cohort-based program all students commented
unfavorably on the split between the theory and the practical parts of the course.
The split was profoundly felt by all students interviewed. Typically, they indicated
that practical activities were valued as supporting their espoused career goals.
Theory, however, was seen as an unnecessary obstacle imposed on them by
academics. One student stated teachers should teach what is done out in the
field . . . . the good teachers are those who know what it is like out in the
field . . . . we dont need those who teach like university professors. Additionally,
a catch phrase voiced by several students in their interviews was an ounce of
practical is worth a pound of theory.
In theory, competency-based education better meets individual learning
needs. Such a program can be more easily tailored to meet students strengths and
weaknesses with flexibility in determining a students needs. Students have
greater control of the method of learning and the pace at which they learn.
Additionally, because evaluation is more individualized, assessment can be more
closely linked to what is required, rather than being restricted to easily marked
tests. Particularly important, with respect to adult technical education, is the
opportunity for students to receive credit for previous experience and knowledge
through a prior learning assessment.
C. Feedback that can be given to the company or institution
One of the most important attributes that our supervisor taught us is selfconfidence. A person's confidence is based upon one's knowledge of the job, and
most importantly, one's own personal belief in his or her abilities. Confidence
begets confidence. A weak or unsure supervisor will not inspire confidence in the

people around him or her. A supervisor who demonstrates his or her knowledge,
and the confidence to use that knowledge, will usually inspire others to attempt to
gain and use the same knowledge. Even though we are only trainees, they dont
treat us like others. And as a trainee we dont feel uncomfortable as we worked
with them. They also encourage us to go on with our studies until we
become professional.
D. Benefits gained
OJT or on-the-job training - this type of training can help students to
become more familiar with the realities of working; in some cases, on-the-job
training may lead to a stable and fulfilling career. Students learn discipline,
organization, and people skills while they train out in the workforce. Since on-thejob training is supervised by real employees in real-life work situations, anything
can happen, and students must learn "on their feet". Sometimes, this sink or swim
method of learning can be quite beneficial. Students will adjust to working, and
they will gain invaluable experience that they can take with them as they move
forward with future careers and education.
E. Problems encountered
The only problem you should have during ON THE JOB training is lack
of self-esteem. You are being trained you are not expected to know everything in
one day. Experience is gained through time. The longer you do something the
more you learn. The faster you gain knowledge & become a productive employee.
