CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the study
Student’s industrial work Experience scheme (SIWES) was introduced in 1973 by the Federal Military Government under the auspices and direct supervision of industrial Training fund (ITF). The scheme is presently 32 years old and it is meant for technocrats.The scheme aimed at exposing students pursuing professional courses in institutions of Higher learning under real office situation, work ethnics and methods. Today it has covered many disciples and has become a necessary pre-requiring for the award of Higher National Diploma and Degree Certificates in specific disciplines in Institutions of Higher Learning in the country. In 1985, the scheme was reverted to industrial Training fund (ITF) for Implementation in collaboration with National Board of Technical Education (NBTE) and National Universities commission. Guidelines were jointly drawn up by the tripartite agencies and since then ITF has continued to ensure the success of the scheme through painstaking supervision of the activities of students in industrial attachment. Industrial twining could be considered as the opportunity given to students in Higher Institutions to acquire experience in the area of his or her career interest in industries. In many undergraduates programmes in Nigerian Universities, polytechnics and colleges of education, the motivation, responsibility and opportunity for insight gained through industrial training can be of inestimable value to students future. Okoye (1992) holds that industrial training helps to develop students public relations especially those who have never worked before they were admitted into higher institutions. The benefits that students obtain from one year industrial training such as exposure to the larger world of work, practical experience of their career and financial assailable offer additional advantage for their field. University students of the relevant courses will have three months industrial attachment at the end of part II and part III of their respective courses. Post graduate students are not eligible. Polytechnics and colleges of technology students should have four months industrial attachment after their first session and then go for one year industrial training after second year. This is duly for ordinary National Diploma students. The main focus of the scheme could hinge on getting employers of labour involved in training their prospective employees. Thus the scheme is aimed at promoting desired technological knowhow for the advancement of the nation. The ultimate goal of the scheme is to develop a well and articulated labour force needed to build a self-reliant economy.
