Purpose: Work-integrated learning refers to that component of cooperative education that can only be conducted through a suitable and approved employer. This training provides students with an opportunity to apply their technical knowledge to relevant problem situations in industry, and to gain exposure to typical organizational culture, human relations and working conditions. With suitable guidance and supervision, the students will be taught to work independently and to develop an awareness of the ethics and requirements of industry. The students therefore could develop their capabilities and to equip themselves to contribute to the well- being of society.
