INTRODUCTION

On–the–Job Training (OJT) refers to a method of acquiring

knowledge, skills, and competencies as a result of practical experience

working in a related job environment. College universities require their

students to have their OJT as a part of the curriculum with a specific

number of hours. This type of training can help the students to become

more familiar with the realities of working. In doing the OJT or

internship, the student trainees will learn to be more disciplined and

organized in every task that they were doing. Aside from having the

chance to apply the skills and knowledge they have learned from

school, it may also provide the students the opportunities to go

through the actual methodologies of a specific job using the real tools,

equipment and documents.

On–the–Job Training is significant because it takes skills training

into the real world, and it may also serve as the preliminary experience

of the student in their life after they graduated. Aside from gaining

more knowledge about their field, the trainee will also be able to boost

their self–esteem. They will know how to socialize with different people

around them and they will be more confident in what they are doing. It

also teaches students to produce in a different, more adult

environment.

I, students of Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology

under the course of Bachelor of Science and Business Administration

was required to undergo in the said program. It takes 540 hours to

complete this training. This narrative report was created in partial

fulfilment in this requirement.

OBJECTIVE OF ON–THE–JOB–TRAINING

NEUST HISTORY

The Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology (NEUST)

started on June, 1908 as a vocational course at the Wight Institute in

San Isidro, Nueva Ecija where young Filipinos were trained in

woodworking and basic telegraphy. Said vocational course lasted until

SY 1927–1928 when the general secondary school was transferred to

Cabanatuan City. However, on June 09, 1929, the school continued its

operation in San Isidro, under a new name, Nueva Ecija Trade School

(NETS) in San Isidro, Nueva Ecija, offering vocational opportunities to

the youths of the province. The first and only vocational course being

offered then was woodworking. That course was an addition to the

existing secondary curriculum inherited from the Wright Institute.

To meet the increasing demand for vocational education in the

whole province, the trade school was transferred on June 07, 1931, to

Cabanatuan City. Enrolment increased; however, the program was

interrupted in December 1941by the outbreak of the Second World

War in the Pacific.

Immediately after the war, the trade school was reopened on

September 6, 1945, Rehabilitation program took place. The trade

school continued with its mission of meeting the vocational and

manpower needs of students coming from both Nueva Ecija and the

nearby provinces. On June 08, 1948, a course in dressmaking was

opened and female students were admitted in the School. a few years

later, food trades and cosmetology courses were also offered.

On May 08, 1953, the NETS were converted into the Central

Luzon School of Arts and Trades (CLSAT) by virtue of Republic Act No.

845. CLSAT was recognized as a centre of manpower/vocational

training for both youth and adults not only in the province but in the

whole Region III.

Series of developments continued until the CLSAT was converted

into the Central Luzon Polytechnic College (CLPC) by virtue of Republic

Act No. 3998 which was signed on June 18, 1964 by then President

Diosdado Macapagal.

Thirty– four years later, the CLPC, under the leadership of

President Gemiliano C. Calling, was converted into a specialized

university, the Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology

(NEUST) by virtue of Republic Act No. 8612.

The Bill converting CLPC into NEUST was signed by speaker Jose

de Vencia on February 09, 1998. It was forwarded to President Fidel V.

Ramos on February 24, 1998 and lapsed into law on March 27, 1998.

The University therefore, ensures that the requirements of

business, industry, services, and other sectors as well as the needs of

the local, regional and national development for high quality

professionals and highly skilled middle– level manpower are

addressed.
