- 1. On the job training or OJT is one method by which students is given a chance to apply the theories and computations that they have learned from theschool. It also helps the students to acquire relevant knowledge and skills byperforming in actual work setting. Colleges and universities require their studentst o u n d e r g o s u c h t r a i n i n g w i t h i n a s p e c i f i c n u m b e r o f h o u r s a s p a r t o f t h e curriculum.For the students, an OJT or internship program provides opportunities tog o t h r o u g h t h e a c t u a l m e t h o d o l o g i e s o f a s p e c i f i c j o b u s i n g t h e r e a l t o o l s , equipments and documents. In effect, the workplace becomes a developmentvenue for a student trainee to learn more about his chosen field and practice what he has learn from academy.On the other hand, an effective OJT program also benefits the companieswho accept trainees. First OJT or intern provides additional manpower for a lesser labor cost than a regular employee. Most of them are all eager to learn theropes so chances are high that they will cooperate.Employers can use this internship strategy as a method in recruiting newemployees. Since the trainer or the supervisor can follow the trainees progress,he can gauge based on performance, behavior and attitude if the trainee will make a good recruit after the completion of his internship. OJTs can bring fresh ideas into the organization. Given the opportunity tos p e a k t h e i r m i n d s f r e e l y a n d w i t h o u t f e a r , t h e y m a yb e a b l e t o c o n t r i b u t e significantly in brainstorming sessions or research and eventually help improvethe organizations productivity. While training the interns, employers are in factalso teaching their employees to process of guiding the trainees stretches their patience, develops teaching skills and makes them more sensitive to the needsand mind set of the younger generation. The course of supervision also teachesthem how to share what they know and be receptive to questions. Hence, the i n t e r n s h i p also becomes an avenue in training for future managers of t h e company.Accommodating on-the-job trainees can truly be beneficial not only to thetrainees but also to the companies that provide opportunities for this type of learning. There is wisdom in the front lines. Such training can be an investmentthat will be valuable to the company later on. This is also why tr ainees shouldtake their internship seriously as it can become a powerful tool and possibly evena source of recommendation when they take that big lift from being students tocareer professionals. 1Narrative Experience November 18, 2008, it was the date when the trainee started the on the job training at Keppel Batangas Shipyard. It is a shipyard company which is situated along side of Batangas Bay at San Miguel, Bauan, Batangas.The trainee was assigned at the department which is called motor pool.This department serves as the general maintenance for the equipments andg a d g e t s t h a t w e r e u s e d i n s i d e t h e c o m p a n y. A l s o , a t t h i s d e p a r t m e n t , a l l operators of the cranes, lifters and trailers were assigned. Almost all of themwere regular workers of Keppel and served the company for almost 20 years
- 2. raining supervisor provides PPEs for the trainees on the first day. PPEstands for personal protective equipment which consists of safety belt, helmet,safety goggle and gloves.Every morning, the supervisor calls for a mustering or a meeting. On thismeeting, safety personnel check all the workers on the assigned department if they were wearing in their proper PPE. Also, they discuss all about what theymust do on that day.The trainee started his work as an assistant and a hel per. He helped inbringing the tools and parts that they need, assist them when they disassemblinge n g i n e s a n d h o l d n u t s a n d b o l t s a s t h e y d e t a c h e d i t . T h e y d o n o t a l l o w t h e trainee to handle machine members especially to those sensitive parts like injectors, tubing, shafts and gears. Being a helper is unexciting; expecting it wasthe only work that the trainee do for rest of his OJT.Time came when he first handle machine members; it was a transmissiongears that detached from a fork lift crane. That time is when his co-worker askedhim to clean and take away greases that stock up on the gears. The traineethought that he was the one who will disassemble the transmission box. But atleast they let him handle a sensitive machine parts for the first time.A month later, new set of disassembled four cylinder engine was arrived.That was the first time when the trainee saw engine parts in reality. His co-worker, which is an expert on the engines, taught the trainee the different parts of the engine as he assembled it. And of course, the trainee already passed the 20 subject called ME LAB II under Engr. Aguila, so that is why the later can relateand can easily identify the parts that his co-worker instructs. He also taught thetrainee some technique in assembling and installing the engine parts. Some of itwas when installing piston ring, the tapered side of the ring must face downward.Piston of a diesel engine was different from piston of gasoline engine. The later has a hole on is face, but this hole was not in the center of the face. That is whyplacing the piston pointing the hole upward has a great difference when placing iton the opposite. The correct position was placing the piston that pointing the holeupward. This is because the fuel injector was placed on the upper side of theblock making it sprays fuel exactly at the hole. He also taught the trainee aboutthe proper timing of the valve and fuel injector, and also the sequence of firinginside the engine cylinders. For a 4-cylinder engine, order of firing was 1-3-2-4.For a 6-cylinder engine, firing was 1-4-2-6-3-5. And for an 8-cylinder, v-typeengine, firing was 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2. These firing orders were not constant at allengines; it is just only based on the trainees experience. Firing orders were variable and based on the manufacturers design in order to minimize vibration.On the following days, the trainee had already worked just like a regular employee of the Keppel. Starting on that time, he was not an assistant or ah e l p e r a n y l o n g e r j u s t l i k e o n h i s f i r s t d a y o f OJT, but one of maintenancepersonnel on that department. He e x p e r i e n c e d i n s t a l l i n g e n g i n e p a r t s l i k e f l yw h e e l , i n j e c t o r s , r a d i a t o r ,
