The student Industrial working experience scheme (SIWES) is a program designed by the federal

government of Nigeria through the industrial trust Fund (ITF) in recognition of the decree No. 47

of 1971 for students in the higher institution of learning. The scheme is established to bridge the

gap between theories and the knowledge acquired by students in institution of higher learning

and designed to give a practical knowledge of their various disciplines to the students. No society

can achieve meaningful progress without encouraging its youth to acquire necessary practical

skills. Such skills enable them to harness available resources to meet the needs of society. It is

against this background that SIWES, otherwise referred to as Industrial training (IT), is

introduces in Nigeria tertiary institutions.

This work experience programme gives student the opportunity to be part of an actual work

situation outside the classroom. SIWES is a cooperative industrial internship programme that

involves institutions of higher learning, industries and the federal government of Nigeria,

industrial training fund (ITF), Nigerian universities commission (NUC) and NBTE/NCCE in

Nigeria. This programme is also required in partial fulfilment of the Award of National Diploma

5.0 RECOMMENDATION

Student industrial working experience scheme is a training program set aside for students of

institutions of higher learning in Nigeria to have more knowledge about their area of

specialization and it's practice. It has been a good way to fill ones gap in one's field of Study and

widening classroom knowledge and ideas.

Furthermore, I will therefore recommend SIWES for all students which are aspiring for the

national diploma award as a means of acquiring practical knowledge in their respect of

disciplines. Also I recommend that government at all level to give more attention to SIWES so as

to increase its standard.

Also the institution should lias with industries to place their students for proper acquisition of

various skills.

Finally, I recommend that proper supervisor should be made to ensure that students are

participating in the exercise so as to acquire the basic industrial skills and experience needed to

excel in the chosen course.

5.1 CONCLUSION

It is with all gratitude to the most high God for security and strength that I bring to a close this

report of my work experience at MINISTRY OF LANDS, HOUSING AND SURVEY

Experiences abound and a lot remain unsaid but in all I believe this report will not just be seen as

an essay of activities carried out but rather as a desire of a student to make meaningful

contribution to such a virile tool for academic proficiency such as the SIWES programme.

The report may not be as accurate as it should be but I have hopefully spent worthwhile time to

painstakingly note down major details of events the firm that are vivid in my recollections. The

data that are made available in this report are not for any form of outside publication and were

acquired with the awareness of the firm with which I had my attachment. They are first-hand

information gathered by myself with the purpose of illustrating and depicting major issues I had

to involve in while on attachment.
