industrial attachment program follow-up workshop report
TRANSCRIPT
Kigali, August 2013
INDUSTRIAL ATTACHMENT PROGRAM FOLLOW-UP WORKSHOP REPORT.
I. INTRODUCTION An Industrial attachment program (IAP) is a training program whereby students/graduates are
placed in companies/industries to acquire practical hands on skills through on the job training
under the mentorship of a company supervisor with vast experience in that area.
IAPs are delivered by TVET training providers, such as VTCs, TSSs and IPRCs as part of their
training curriculum. These training providers, however, have conducted IAPs using different
approaches. For the purpose of uniformity and harmonization, WDA in collaboration with JICA,
developed a standardized IAP guideline, which was validated in a workshop which took place at
Hilltop hotel on 17th of January 2012, with the presence of all stakeholders including the private
sector. Subsequently, IAP dissemination workshops for TVET schools were conducted from 7th
to 11th May 2012 in Musanze and from 28th May to 1st June 2012 in Kigali.
This time, one year after the workshop, WDA in partnership with JICA-TCT project phase 2
conducted IAP follow-up survey from 27thMay to 6th June 2013 in order to collect information of
the current situation of IAP, understand the obstacles and good practices of IAP in
implementation, and examine the effectiveness of the IAP guideline as well as the IAP workshop
conducted last year.
To conclude the IAP follow-up survey, WDA and JICA-TCT project phase 2 have carried out a
two-day workshop from 1st to 2nd August 2013 to share the findings of the survey, and to
examine how WDA, together with TVET schools and industry partners, can better promote and
improve the IAP practices on the ground.

III. IAP FOLLOW UP WORKSHOP
The workshop was conducted to examine how WDA, together with TVET schools and industry partners, can better promote and improve the IAP practices with the following specific objectives: to share information on the current situation of IAP, to understand the obstacles and good practices of IAP in practice, to examine the effectiveness of the IAP guideline as well as the IAP workshops conducted last year, to suggest the best strategies to bring private companies on board to support IAP and to understand different roles/responsibilities to be taken by different stakeholders, i.e. TVET schools, private companies, and WDA, for better IAP implementation
At the end of the workshop expected results were: Sort out good practices and challenges of IAP, share ideas with companies so as to minimize the gap on expectation for IAP, examine possible solutions to overcome IAP challenges, learn how to conduct proper monitoring and assessment and understand different roles to be taken by different stakeholders, namely, TVET schools, private companies, and WDA

III.2. Review of the previous workshop
For the purpose of updating all participants on the implementation of the harmonized industrial attachment program, it was necessary to draw the history of the new industrial attachment program from the pilot phase to dissemination including respective activities and findings.
III.2.1. IAP PILOT PROJECT
To enhance competitiveness and employability of the workforce, WDA urged the promotion of industrial attachment program in TVET Schools hence requested JICA to cooperate in a technical aid project .JICA provided an expert who facilitated and guided the development of IAP framework, implemented it in 10 selected VTCs and visited private sector companies, PSF (BDS), RCA and individual cooperatives for seeking cooperation to the program. After a careful evaluation and validation workshop of the program it was decided to replicate / roll out it in the remaining TVET schools.
III.2.2. IAP DISSEMINATION WORKSHOPS
After implementing the IAP pilot program and its validation by industry in January 2012, WDA through partnership building unit have been implementing the validated program in All TVET schools:

According the results, number of schools conducting IAP is increasing as well as the number of students going fort IAP is increasing but the number of attachment is decreasing
IV.2.2. ATTACHMENT SITUATION OF 2012 IV.2.3. AREAS THAT HAVE PARTICULAR PROBLEMS
Interns of tailoring are restricted to touch any customers’ product
Sex harassment for hotels interns
Out of 17 visited schools, 11 of them had a problem of companies charging money
for IAP. For 7 schools of them students will pay for themselves. 4 schools pay the
cost on behalf of students. 6 schools did not have such problem.
IV.2.4. OBSTACLES TO THE EFFECTIVENESS IAP IMPLEMENTATION
Insufficient budget Limited number of companies Lack of companies particularly for plumbing, welding and carpentry Problem of undermining VTC graduates to favor those from universities Charging IAP Lack of allowance for trainees Limited financial resources to facilitate ILO in supervision School managers who do not recognize the importance of ILOs Difficulties to find attachment for electrical department Schools having IAP in the same time create a high demand in companies to provide
IAP and thus it reduce the chance to get attachment places IAP Guideline seems to be not well understood by users (difference of steps) Schools think that all logbooks are complicated to be used and be filled especially
time consuming for companies’ supervisors

IV.2.5. INSURANCE PROVISION
a) Insurance provision:
All students had insurance for 14 schools
Some of the students had insurance for 3 schools (1,30,40%) b) Insurance problems: c) Limited capacity for students to pay insurance themselves (Comments from 3 schools); d) Particular or individual insurance obliged by some companies
IV.2.6. PROBLEMS THAT WERE IDENTIFIED DURING MONITORING
Failing to meet student immediate student’s supervisor when monitoring Lack of discipline of trainees/interns Idle student who were not tasked to do things or kept in one place or department Some company supervisors do not support interns Companies supervisors do not like to fill logbooks Lack of enough transport facilities Students who get IAP in far places difficult to monitor Students who are tasked to do thing far different from their training skills Tailoring companies do not allow interns to go real practices. They are afraid that
students might damage customers’ items Some of students get job during IAP and do not come back to school to complete their
studies Some students mostly girls get sex harassments during IAP Lack of practice in many of companies
IV.2.7. GOOD PRACTICE
The IAP practice is high from some years ago even before IAP training and with high attachment
For 11 schools ILO’s responsibilities are shared Some of schools developed necessary missing IAP forms Though there is a limited number of companies/industries schools do their best to attach
the big number of students IAP guideline is used and useful to11 schools which is 61.1% Students’ logbook is useful and used by 9 schools. Three others users recommended to
improve it ILO logbook is useful and used by 9 schools. Two schools think that it needs to be
improved Companies' supervisors Logbooks are used in 6 schools. 5 schools think that it need to be
revised
VI. GROUP WORK ON GOOD PRACTICES AND CHALLENGES
The participants were divided into six group discussions to analyse good practice, challenges and effectiveness of TVET through IAP Public awareness, company’s cooperation to IAP and student allocation, IAP financing and Insurance, more effective of IAP, logbook and IAP guidelines. The findings are stated below:
V.1. LOGBOOKS
i) PROBLEMS/POINTS TO BE IMPROVED
Lack of enough pages
Duplication of some information
Numbering disorganization
Spelling mistakes
ii) CAUSE OF PROBLEMS
LIAISON OFFICER LOGBOOK
Logbook pages are not in order
Few pages for liaison officer for company visit form
STUDENT’S LOGBOOK
Indicate phone number of supervisor
Mention on page 2 the title: Week No….
Date, from….to….and make ten similar copies
On page 5, the first column is a repetition of page 3. It should be removed.
The space for comments and suggestions is too small
Lack of instructions on how to use logbook and how IAP is conducted
Lack of hard cover for log books
COMPANY SUPERVISOR LOG BOOK
Contract between company and school should be signed once for all.
Lack of enough space to write down objectives
Lack of enough space for company and school names
Logbook translation is not exact when you compares different languages
Space for signature is not enough
iii) SOLUTIONS
Train concerned persons on how to fill in log books (Company log book) Increase the space for objectives (Company log book) Indicate the number of weeks as heading (Company log book) Avail the log book in Kinyarwanda(Company log book) Insert a table of ten rows at least (Company log book) On page 4, change health to health insurances On Art2, change ID badge to “student ID card” Art3. Change ‘allow one or two visits’ to ‘allow liaison office or other
schools delegated member for IAP monitoring’ Delete duplicated ideas and phrases Rearrange numbering Correction of spelling mistakes Replace plastic cover with other good covers Harmonize the translation
V.2. IAP GUIDELINE
i) PROBLEMS
Logbook is very big Confirmation letters are not properly used Some steps of the steps are not well understood/clear Lack of understanding the meaning/use of some of the IAP proposed forms
ii) CAUSE OF PROBLEMS
Communication skills and English level are low Lack of time Mismatch of calendar for schools’ IAP implementation and private sector
places availability
iii) SOLUTION
Use forms instead of letters. It is suitable for business men (WDA) Simplify the logbooks by making few pages (WDA,s responsibility) Sensitization (WDA,s responsibility) Appoint WDA/IAP representative at district level (WDA,s responsibility)
V.3. COMPANIES COPOPERATION TO IAP AND STUDENTS ALLOCATION
i) PROBLEMS/POINTS TO BE IMPROVED
COMPANIES’ COOPERATION TO IAP
Trainees are considered as potential competitors Lack of relationship between companies and training providers Companies do not recognize/get the importance of IAP Doubting skills of VTC/fresh graduates Lack of internal IAP supervisors Trainees are considered as potential competitors
STUDENTS ALLOCATION
Huge number of student go for IAP in the same time Limited number of companies compared to schools IAP places demand Nature of companies (poor companies with limited equipment, lack of
capable human resources etc) Lack of financial means which force students to get attached in wrong places
ii) CAUSE OF PROBLEMS
COMPANIES’ COOPERATION
Lack of collaboration framework between companies and schools Companies are not sensitized on IAP Low school/parent financial capacity Lack of IAP awareness to companies IAP period is the same for all schools which means a huge IAP demand
difficult to satisfy by limited number of companies Lack of carrier guidance of students before they go to IAP
STUDENTS ALLOCATION
IAP calendar is the same for all schools Lack of carrier guidance in students orientation
iii) SOLUTION
Sensitization to company managers (they should get the real meaning/advantage of IAP). Responsible: WDA
Establish a relationship framework and follow up. Responsible: WDA and school managers
Involve parents in IAP (saving for IAP). Responsible: Government Funding IAP. Responsible: Government
ILO should visit companies before sending students. Responsible: School managers and ILOs RESPONSIBLES: WDA in hands with PSF, Company managers
V.4. TVET and IAP PUBLIC AWARENESS
i) POINTS TO BE IMPROVED
Lack of TVET and IAP marketing to the public Activities of TVET are not understood by local government/ establish
advocacy policy Lack of awareness for VTC, TSS, IPRC and TVET Lack of communication skills of VTCs graduates Lack of employment for VTC graduates on the market Lack of motivation to companies that receive students
ii) CAUSE OF PROBLEMS
Lack of marketing budget for TVET And IAP Lack of IAP and TVET decentralization Public’s bad impression of TVET graduates Lack of equipment and qualified teachers Different background of TVET students (Not completed primary studies,
primary level, 9years etc)
iii) SOLUTION
Set up open days, internal and external marketing. Responsible: WDA, Schools, PSF
Organize marketing session with company managers. Responsible: Schools, PSF, WDA
Select students from the same background. Responsible: Schools Hire qualified trainers. Responsible: WDA Motivating TVET teachers. Responsible: WDA, MINEDUC Create production units within schools. Responsible: Schools, WDA Sensitize IAP to local government (District and other related partners)
V.5. IAP FINANCING AND INSURANCE
i) PROBLEMS
IAP is cost is high to be supported by schools Difficulties to have medical certificate required by some of companies Some companies request student to bring their own working equipment,
which is expensive to most of them Charging caution fees to students before providing IAP placement
Companies obliging students to submit physical fitness Individual insurance expensive to students
ii) CAUSE OF PROBLEMS
Weak sensitization/awareness of IAP to the public poverty to concerned pities
iii) SOLUTION
SHORT TERM SOLUTION
Include parent in IAP process. Responsible: Parent and sponsors Establishing IAP clubs in schools. Responsible: School managers Secure IAP budget
LONG TERM SOLUTION
TVET financing
OTHER SOLUTIONS
Use media to advertize IAP Advertise IAP in schools’ parent meetings
V.6. IAP EFFECTIVENESS
i) PROBLEMS
Lack responsibilities management in looking IAP places IAP preparation stage complications Lack of seriousness of some of companies Mismatch of schedule of students to attend IAP IAP calendar unfavorable to VTCs, when all school look IAP places in the
same time Lack of harmonization of IAP duration
ii) CAUSE OF PROBLEMS
Schools looking for IAP places alone Students looking for places Delay IAP implementation preparation Poor follow up of request made Heavy workload of ILO Lack of full ownership by school managers Uncertainty of secured places, since companies change their minds Companies undermining VTC levels Companies obliging expensive insurance
Duplication of request (student and school applying in one institution separately)
Lack of control for IAP request made by students Difficulties to secure places for all school go for IAP in the same period Some of the schools do not follow IAP guideline prepared by DWA and
conduct IAP for 3, 2 or 1.5 Months
iii) SOLUTION/RECOMMENDATION
School should secure places but let students secure places by themselves Stop giving recommendation letters to students to stop schools request letters
duplication. The recommendation letter provided to student is exactly the same letter that the school present when applying for IAP places. Cancelling one that was provided to student will improve the situation
Let students prepare IAP application letters by themselves get approval from school before taking it to companies and leave a copy of it to school
School managers should fully understand IAP and own its activities Publish the list of attachment at least 2 weeks prior to start IAP ILO should not be a trainer because of heavy workload. Teachers should help
when it comes to technical support Enhance relations with industries Award best companies to provide IAP placements One person per school should be responsible to sign IAP requesting letters They should be a flexibility for VTCs to arrange IAP for their suitable
calendar To respect and follow IAP provided guideline
Responsible should be WDA, MINEDUC and GoR

Any other comment
IAP WS should be organized for TSS too Consider the ticked/accommodation for those coming far from Kigali not the same way as
near/Kigali residents Getting a high number of TVET graduate is appreciable but the quality should prevail on the
quantity, since the quality is still very low. Please think of creating technical schools of excellence in Rwanda to serve as model in EAC
Congratulation! The workshop was well organized and participants were willing to exchange ideas as well as experience
I appreciated WDA for organizing IAP WS To strengthen the capacity of ILO, they should be regular, supervision, visits to them Make sure to heed our given recommendation We should make the WS simple and shorter so that members do not get tired The WS was well organized The training should happen many times to increase the IAP understanding and share
experience There is no any other comments apart from congratulating this IAP WS planners Invite more companies to participate in this kind of workshop Consider to increase the per diem for participants who come far from Kigali. They come
earlier and leave later As an ILO the workshop should take place periodically, it is helpful to fulfill my
responsibilities I appreciated the way the workshop was prepared and conducted I appreciated the workshop organization, group work and its rich methodology Please implement all of suggestion given in this workshop It’s better to organize more workshop like this IAP pacification was very good
*Proposed per diem: 35000, 35000, 37000, 40000, 35000, 37000, 37000, 35000, 50000, and 35000. The average of all is 37600Frw:
VIII. Recommendations (way forward)
The lessons learnt and suggestions from the workshop will lead to the following activities and will be implemented just after the workshop:
Dissemination of IAP in all TVET schools We shall Visit and prepare workshops within at least 100 schools. Revise IAP Tools Distribute revised IAP tools To train ILOs, School managers and company supervisors We shall make IAP impact evaluation
