application and posting. It also introduces intelligent solution providers (ISP) of computer,
where I had my SIWES training
1.1 ABOUT STUDENTS INDUSTRIAL WORK EXPEIENCE SCEHME
The student work experience scheme (SIWES) is worldwide program practical in countries
like Ghana, Togo, Benin, and so all. It is popularly known as co-operative education and
referred to as sandwich in Europe. It is a four (4) months students industrial work experience
scheme (SIWES) taken in the third year of the degree program, where the students go to
various establishments related to course of study.
The program was initially introduced in Nigeria by the industrial Training fund (I.T.F.) which
was established under Decree 47 of 1972 by the Supreme Military Council, headed General
yakubu Gowon. The Decree was billed to take effect from 31 st 1974 and had as its core
objective, the gradual reduction of the percentage of foreign participation in most of
Nigeria’s economic activities, accompanied by systematic cooperation of locally oriented
skilled manpower into vast economic sector.
One of the key functions of the ITF is to work as cooperative body with industry and
commerce where students in institutions of higher learning can undertake midcareer work
experience attachment in industrial which are compatible with student’s area of study. The
students Industries Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) is a skill Training program designed
to expose and prepare students for the Industrial work situation which they are likely to meet
after graduation. Participating in SIWES has become a necessary per-condition for the award
of diploma and degree certificate in specific disciplines in most intuitions of higher learning
in the country in accordance with the education policy government.

KNOWLEDGE/ EXPERIENCE GAINED DURING SIWES
3.0 INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER
A computer system be it micro, a mainframe or super computer consist of both hardware and
software. It is an electronic machine capable of accepting data, process the data into a
meaningful information as output. A computer is a machine or tool, which is capable of:
1. Taking input data
2. Storing the input data.
3. Processing the input data.
4. Producing the output report on paper or computer store for human being to use
The term computer is obtain from the word compute. A computer is an electronics device that
inputs (take in) facts (known as data) and then processes (does something to or with it).
Afterward
INTRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY
In simple language, information technology (I.T) is the overall technical where withal
required for an efficient gathering, storage, processing utilizing computers, the internet and
other electronic tools like camcorders, mobile or cell phone etc.
INPUT AND OUTPUT DEVICES
Some of the Input Devices include:
1. Keyboard
2. Joystick
 Mouse
1. Electronic pen
2. Track ball etc.
Output Devices Include:
1. Printer
2. Monitor (VDU)
 Plotters
PART OF A COMPUTER
There are two main parts of computers, hardware and software.
HARDWARE are all part of computer he computer you can see and touch or visible part of a
computer which means is the physical device one can see and touch the range from the
smallest of chips to the total unit called computer system.

5
SOFTWARE are list of instructions needed by a computer to perform specific tasks.
Software is often called a programme, most times they are compilation of codes written in
specific language i.e. jargons and conventions developed by man to achieve certain ends.
There are type of software such as utility software, application software etc.
APPLICATION OF COMPUTER
Computer has varying applications ranging from the most mundane and simple tasks to the
highly sophisticated and seemly complicated. Computers can be applied to basic office jobs
like typing memos, letters, graphic design, photo imaging and massive data analysis in
different fields such as communication, engineering, crime control, medicine and other
technology based field to mention but few.
Computer has made it possible to keep reliable records, to manage large files to conduct near
impossible searches, to manage and protect databases and promote secure and efficient
payment system.
CONNECTING COMPUTER TO POWER
This is very crucial and never learn it by trial. Let a competent technician demonstrate it to
you.
Truth however is that it is as simple as connecting a video player and television set to
themselves and then to power. Once the technician has demonstrated this at least twice-then
you are good to go. The use of inverter and stabilizer for any computer is recommended,
because of power fluctuation.

PowerPoint.
3.2.1 BENEFITS OF POWER POINT
 PowerPoint provides multiple benefits to users, including:
 It is widely used, and considered the "standard" for presentation software. If you create
a PowerPoint presentation, it's more likely it will be easier for others to open and view.
 It includes many optional presentation features, including slide transitions, animations,
layouts, templates, and more.
 It offers the option to export its slides to alternative file formats, including GIF and JPG
images, MPEG-4 video, PDF, RTF (rich text format), WMV (Windows Media Video),
and PowerPoint XML.

3.2.2 HOW TO CREATE A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION
The possible uses of PowerPoint are countless. A slide show can help a teacher teach a
lesson, illustrate an event in history, easily display statistical information, or be used for
training in corporations. A slide show can be a valuable tool for teaching, sharing and
learning.
STEP 1: LAUNCH THE POWERPOINT PROGRAM
When you launch the PowerPoint program, you may be prompted to pick what kind of
document you want to create. Choose to create a blank presentation. If it does not ask you
this, a blank presentation will automatically launch.
STEP 2: CHOOSING A DESIGN
The next thing you want to do is decide what design you want for the presentation. To do
this, go to the 'Design' tab at the top of the page. Scroll through all the options and decide
which one looks best for the presentation you want. To get a preview of what the design will
look like before applying it to the presentation, hover over the design you want to preview.
STEP 3: CREATE TITLE PAGE
Click the first box that says 'Click to add title' and add the title of your presentation. Click the
bottom box to add your name, or any other subtitle that you choose. Once you have your text
in the boxes, you can change their font, size, color, etc. with the toolbar options at the top.
STEP 4: ADD MORE SLIDES
Chances are, you are going to need more than one slide. There are a few ways you can add
more slides. Notice that there is a separate area to the left of the screen where your first slide
is located. The first way to add a slide is to right-click the area under where your first slide is
located and selects 'New Slide'. A new slide will appear. The second way to add another slide
it to click 'New Slide' in the toolbar above the slides.
STEP 5: ADD CHARTS, PICTURES, GRAPHS, ETC.
If you want to insert a chart, picture, graph, or any other graphic, click on the 'Insert' tab at
the top of the window. Here you will see buttons of all the options of what you can insert into
your slide. Click the designated box and insert what it is you want to have on that slide. A
second way you can insert pictures and graphs is when you have an empty text or image box.
Little pictures of the same options you saw in the toolbox will show up in the middle of the
box, and you can click any of these to insert as well. Once you have your chart or picture, you
can add a border or edit it however you want in the 'Format' tab.

 CHAPTER FOUR
SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

4.0 SUMMARY
The whole experience gained during the attachment at SAMTECH ICT TECH HUB was
very enlightening. The practical skills we were exposed to and the opportunity to relate with
typical situations relating to computer engineering industry. These experiences have
successfully broadened my understanding and interest in Electrical and Electronics
Engineering as a profession especially in the field of Control and Automation engineering.
The training was worthwhile, has it accorded me the privilege of gaining insight into job
preparation as well as what it meant to carry out proper inspection and also working
condition under stress which in a way prepares undergraduates for the outside world after
school.
4.1 CONCLUSION
The SIWES program expected to be undergone by all students in the school of applied
science in all tertiary institution in Nigeria.
I therefore deeply appreciate the industrial training of my school (Waziri Umaru Federal
Polytechnic, Birnin Kebbi) for involving themselves in such a worldwide program. The
importance of this training cannot be over emphasized industrial training by some operations
carried out during the program.
4.2 RECOMMENDATION
I like to use this medium to explore the federal Government at all stage to take this SIWES
program more seriously seen by the students of applied science as a virtual improvement in
future of technology in our nature.
Government should also ensure a proper supervision of SIWES student so that the purpose of
the programme will be achieved.
The federal Government should make adequate provision in the annual budget for proper
funding of SIWES in view of the potential of the scheme to contribute to enhancing the
quality of the pool to technical skill available to the economy.
A comprehensive and detail directory of employer who accept students for SIWES is
urgently required to facilitate placement of student in industry.
In order to guarantee quality assurance of institution and the ITF. The ITF should ensure that
the backlog in payment of students allowance is cleared urgently to remove the negative
image being created for SIWES.
