1 CHAPTER THREE

DISCUSSION, RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSION

1.1 Introduction
This chapter discusses about lessons learnt, comparison between site and class work and
challenges in the discussion, the recommendations to the university administration, the
organization and the trainee then finally the conclusion.
1.2 Discussion
1.2.1 Lessons learnt
1. Better interpretation of plans and drawings both architectural and structural.
2. Developing of rates needed for the different project activities.
3. Taking off using excel software and preparation of a bills of quantities.
4. Taking off using Plan swift software.
5. Preparation of valuations and interim certificates.
6. Basic office personnel relations and improved communication skills.

1.2.2 Comparison between site and class work

1. The trainee was able to analyze and compare what is taught in lecture rooms to what
actually goes on at the organization for example in class, we only consider the wall
plate to be on the external walls yet during the training, the wall plate is also on the
internal loading bearing walls because if it’s not there, it will lead to sagging of the
roof.
2. Calculating quantities for various elements in the construction process for example
the substructure, superstructure. The trainee was able to understand better what was
taught in class with a simpler method acquired during the training.
3. Quick measurement through the use of Plan Swift construction estimating takeoff
software. It calculates everything you need to get an estimate together, labor, square
metres, perimeters, volumes of simple or complex areas, beams among others. With
plan swift, you can easily take off as soon as you hear about the job.
4. At the organization, the trainee was able to physically make sense of certain
descriptions when the trainees visited the site in Kawempe for example descriptions
for excavation and disposal of water.

1.2.3 Challenges
Throughout the trainee’s training at Bikandema and Partners, the trainee faced a few
challenges and these include;
1. Many skills required in office especially with the billing process were those barely
taught in class. This created a great challenge in coping up with new skills barely
taught in class.
2. The outbreak of Ebola disease in the country that threatened most of citizens in the
country. This too, brought about fear of physical interaction amongst our trainers and
the fellow colleagues doing the training.
3. Limited time of interaction and career guidance from our supervisors. This was
because of the busy schedule of their works during the training period that minimized
the time of one-on-one interaction between the trainers and the trainees.

1.3 Conclusion
The training has been a great exposure to the quantity surveying field in specificity,
measurement, contract documentation, preparation of valuations and certificates among
others.
It has helped the trainee as a student to relate the general theory taught at the university to the
real work done in the field. Through this, the trainee acquired a couple of skills for example
taking off with excel and plan swift, time management, listening and interpersonal
communication skills, organizational skills, to mention but a few.
1.4 Recommendation
Internship training is implemented through partnership among three key stakeholders the
organization, the University and the students. All the three partners are responsible for
effectively, efficiently and sustainably implementing the internship program. Commitment to
this partnership rests on mutual benefits for all the key partners involved. The
recommendations to strengthen the internship program are categorized under the three stake
holders; the university administration, organization and the trainee.
1.4.1 The university administration
1. It should secure internship places with recognized companies for students to ease
monitoring them and also reduce the difficulty a student finds when looking for a
placement.
2. It should integrate internship program into the university curricular and have it
reviewed periodically for perfect improvements of the program.

2
 3. It should also develop a more reliable monitoring and evaluation criteria for the
internship program including the code of conduct for students and staff involved both
at the university and at the field other than relying on logbooks.
4. The university should identify organizations that offer valuable learning experiences
to the students other than sending students with letters to look for sites for their
training and they resort to places that they are familiar with.
5. The university should source for funding from development partners and internally to
support implementation of the internship program. This mainly benefits the student
who may lack sufficient funds to go through the internship program.
6. It should also create platforms and mechanisms for sharing experience arising out the
internship program by the stakeholders for better improvement of the internship
program for example by issuing official communication to the organizations so that
they prepare themselves for the trainees.

1.4.2 The organization

1. It should provide feedback to the university on the experience of the student during
the internship period in order to make necessary improvements.
2. It should engage in a mutual learning exercise together with the students and staff of
Makerere University.
3. It should provide students undergoing internship program with a wide range of
experiences that go beyond technical skills.
