Introduction:

Example:
On 17th May, 2018 at 9.00 am the trainee and co-trainees reached to ABC

officer to know the administrative plan to meet the need of their client.

trainee went to other field for data collection. Both trainees collected data
till 4.30 pm.

carried out by them on that particular day of visit based on their objectives and the other related
information from the organisation/community.
Observation(s):

obtained. Observation can either be positive or negative. The trainee should observe the
organisation, behaviour of the organisation/staff, surrounding conditions, people’s responses
during data collection, and even the activities of co-trainees.

This is the crucial phase because here the trainee highlights his/her own learning. Learning
should always be positive in nature. Learning includes the internalization of a procedure of a

achieve the objective.

professional principles.

from the administrative officer.
2. Applied principle of non-judgmental attitude to the community people during
data collection.
3. Applied principle of confidentiality to hide client’s identity in the report.
Any challenges faced/Challenges Encountered:
The challenges would include a situation/barrier which restricted the trainee from carrying out
his/her planned activity.
If it is really a challenge then it should be reported accordingly in the report.

The trainees are expected to highlight their next future plan in the organisation/community.
Conclusion:
In this section, trainees are expected to present the gist of major activities of the day, challenges,
learning, and achievements.
