Abstract

This paper aims to determine SHS students’ feedback on the work immersion partner agencies. The study employed descriptive research design. The study was conducted in the Magsaysay National High School, Magsaysay, Occidental Mindoro from November 2019 to January 2020. The students were selected using simple random sampling from the list of work immersion students in SY 2019-2020. 

Result shows that the students have a “very satisfactory” feedback on the work immersion partner-agency categorized into work immersion facilities & venue, work immersion design and processes, and work immersion actual experience. They have the “mastery of the competency” acquired in the partner-agency and encountered slightly serious problems with regards to work immersion experience.

Based on the results and conclusions, the researcher recommends that the school should provide competency standards for each major as part of the performance appraisal report to evaluate the performance of the students. A monitoring of work immersion students who are being employed after SHS should be conducted. This study also calls for future investigation of the same topic considering the industry mapping or identifying different industry partners that may be part of the learning and exposure of the student-trainees to deploy the students to their respective field of specialization. Further, a correlation study may be conducted using the profile variables of the students
