HOW TO FILL YOUR SIWES LOG BOOK.(A QUICK HINT FOR NIGERIAN INDUSTRIAL TRAINING STUDENTS)

What is SIWES?

SIWES stands for Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES), it is a skills training programme that is designed to expose and as well prepare students of Universities, Polytechnics/Colleges of Technology/Colleges of Agriculture and Colleges of Education for the industrial work situation they are likely to meet after graduation. In Nigeria, it is designed in such a way to fit into the curriculum of students mostly in 300Level and 400Level, and it as well carries a large credit load that can easily boost ones GP if one actually gets an "A" grade in it.

What is the SIWES Log Book?

The log book is more of a memo booklet that a SIWES student must be in possession of to easily record the daily experience and happening as he or she is on the SIWES programme. The Log book as well contains basic data about the student, and also the company or place the student must have been attached to inorder to carry out the SIWES programme.

 Nevertheless, students on SIWES industrial training always have difficulties in filling the appropriate data into the Log book, that is why I came up with this post to help out.

below are pictures and explanation that clearly shows how to fill the Log book.
Note:- The Log book varies across institutions and school. i.e it is not the same every where. 

student particular diagram

The Student Particular Page
This page contains your name (ie the SIWES student), your institution name(e.g university, college of education, polytechnic e.tc), the course of study(e.g computer science), year of course(e.g 300Level), the company/establishment attached to (e.g Layer3 Limited), the name of your industry based SIWES cordinator (i.e the person your report to on your training, or the person attached to you to aid you on your SIWES programme), then finally your Registration/Matriculation number, with a copy of your recent passport attached.


organisation chart diagram

The Organizational Profile Page
This page still contains the name of establishment/company you are attached to, the location of the company/establishment (ie the address), then the productions/jobs undertaken/number of employees.




organisation profile 2

The Organisational Chart Page
This page simply contain the organisations/establishment/company organogram (ie the flow of power from the top (CEO) to the bottom (employees))

attendance reg 2

The Attendance Register Page

This page mainly contains the SIWES students attendance registry, and it meant to be completed and entered by the person you report to in your company every week. it has a format of X/Y, where X - is the total number of days attended and Y - is the total number of work days of your company. it also has provision for your industry base supervisor to lay an overall comment about you and as well sign and stamp it.



log book body figure 1

The Industrial Training Assessment Sheet
(End Of Programme Evaluation)
This page contains the period (ie the time from and to the time the SIWES programme is meant to elapse), the name of the SIWES student, department(s) in which the SIWES student was in during the SIWES programme, the name of the company attached to, the type of business the company does, then finally the performance rating which is meant to be completed by your instructor at your company (ie the person attached to you).






End Of Programme Evaluation2

End Of Programme Evaluation 4

End Of Programme Evaluation6


End Of Programme Evaluation 8




The Main Pages Of The Log Book 
This is the main body of the Log book, where the student record the daily experiences gained as he or she carries out the SIWES programme. This is done by writing a brief summary of what you did on that particular day in the space provided, and also attach the date of that day as well. It also has an area to add illustration(i.e diagrams), I will advise you to draw diagrams if any with pencils and also try your possible best to make it neat. At times there might not be diagrams to draw, in the diagram provided space one can still add write-ups as clearly shown above. Finally, below it is a section for your signature and date of that week, and also a comment section for your instructor, his or her signature, and date.


I hope this is of help to you. If you have any comment at all you are free to push them forward.
Have a wonderful SIWES Training.

    1. Good morning Dubem,
      The minimum day expected to fill your register is 5 days (ie monday to friday) but it depends on the firm you are doing your industrial training some firms require their student to come during weekends. So if you go during the weekend you are expected to fill it in the register as well. Thanks Dubem and hope I answered your question.

    1. OK this is what you will do, can you send me a picture of your logbook (ie where you fill in your daily activities ) to benjaminohepo@gmail.com or let me have a look and tell you how you will go about it. And if I can get you well you attend only twice in a week right? I am waiting.

      Delete
    2. Sir Dubem, i just got your mail. OK this is what you will do, let me say you only do two days in a week, for the week you will have to split all what you have learnt within that two days into five days to cover up for the week, and mind you you have to detail it make it more rich by adding things you did learn on your own and finally connecting them together to make more sense. Note don't have that thought to leave your logbook blank especially those days that you didn't attend make sure you fill in each day with one or more activities you learned for each week. Also remember to share the article with you friends on IT as well follow the blog to get latest articles, thanks.

    1. you can indicate it on the day in your log book, but i will advise you not to do that as the Log book doesnt entails you to fill in your sick periods, so you can leave that day blank so that when you are strong you can actually populate that space with something you might have learnt relating to your IT.

    1. Goodday Sir Emmanuel.
      Due to some constraint most institution based supervisors hardly come to inspect their students on IT. You need not bother yourself on that part as the institution is aware that they didn't send supervisor to your location make sure your logbook is properly filled and leave that place blank, when you get back to your institution they will resolved that part for you. Just ensure you properly fill your logbook.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Thanks Joker. the rating standard varies across institutions, some rating may be commentary or it may be rated using a scale with example of what you mention above. my advice for you is to make sure you are at your maximum performance at your place of IT and of good conduct, because some supervisors can go an extra mile to ask your instructor or boss about your general performance and behavior.

      Wao! i feel you have missed your first step which is choosing the right place for your IT. As public admin has noting to do in a computer center, unless in the computer center you are placed in a position where you can exercise your role as a public admin person, which is basically more of human relation and management.
