Abstract

This study measured the perception of the Higher Training Establishment (HTE) on the skills of the On-the-Job (OJT) students assigned to their establishments. The Electrical Engineering OJT students were deployed in several companies in Davao City. After the training the HTEs were asked to evaluate the students based on several expected outcomes. The results showed that the OJT students demonstrated the skills and knowledge expected of them. There were areas that needed to be improved and the activities that will address these were reflected in the action plan.
