SIWES is a cooperative internship programme, which enable students of technology to spent some part of their course for relevant on-the-job training practical experience in appropriate areas of the Nigerian industry. The internship programme, SIWES, can therefore be seen as that which is intended to give Nigerian students studying, occupationally related courses experience that would supplement their theoretical learning. E-SIWES since inception the ITF has laboriously administered the scheme manually with the growing number of institutions and ever increasing populations of students who are qualified to participate. It is virtually impossible to run a hitch-free administration of the scheme manually. SIWES data are now submitted through on-line system and payment of allowance to the students is made through e-payment. The student can now check their record with the use of . This opens a window for each participating student and institution. Student can now verify their records entered by the institution on his or her behalf. Every student should collect password from SIWES unit in order to access this. All relevant forms can easily be downloaded from the website. Student cannot edit the information without routing such edit requests through their institution. The objectives of SIWES among other includes to:

provide an avenue for students in institution of higher learning to acquire industrial skills and experience in their approved course of study. expose and prepare students for industrial work situation they are likely to meet after graduation. expose student to work methods and techniques in handling equipment and machinery that may not be available in the educational institution. provide student with an opportunity to apply their knowledge in real work situation thereby bridging the gap between theory and practices. enlist and strengthen employer’s involvement in the entire educational process of preparing student for employment in industry, and prepare the students for a business career by merging their analytical power with self reliance (Information and guidelines for SIWES, 2002).
