According to Armstrong (1988) training is a systematic development of knowledge, skills and

attitudes by an individual to perform adequately a given task or job. Training according to Gupta

(2000) means “the process of increasing the knowledge and skills for doing a particular job. It is

an organized procedure by which people learn knowledge and skill for a definite purpose. The

purpose of training basically is to bridge the gap between job requirements and present

competence of employee. Training is aimed at improving the behavior and performance of a

person . it is never ending or continuous process “Training must be not confused with education,

so in order to specify what the study means by the word training it is important to differentiate

the two terms.

management is important for students to get high marks. Student’s success in studies depends

much on managing time efficiently. The habits and morals they acquire during school time and

home will s tick with them throughout the future. Time management is not taught as an

academic subject in schools. Students have to utilize their 24 hours to become the best

students and experts in the subject. The focus of learning time management skills is just to

develop the habits of spending time wisely.

According to Wood & Bandura (1989) as cited in Machmud (2018) states that perception in

completing a job is self-efficacy. Moreover, self-efficacy relates to someone’s confidence in

achieving his/her duties in uncertainty.

While Bandura (1997) as cited in Domenech-Betorel et al. (2017) defined self-efficacy as “an

individual’s belief in his or her own ability to organize and implement action to produce the

desired achievements and results”. Self-efficacy is one’s faith in accomplishment task

successfully. Learners automatically adjust and adopt the new environment they are in for them

to finish the immersion program while developing their efficiency.

According to Vygotskian theory , learners co-construct knowledge through social interactions

with more knowledgeable conversational partners. Genesee (1995) concurs and writes,

“language is acquired most effectively social situations”(p. 1).

According to Victory Christian International (2016). Immersion increases level of consciousness

about a certain work community. As a students immerse in their workplace of their interest, they

get to know more about the whats, whys, and hows of working in the area. They get a glimpse

of other people’s attitude and principles while being receptive and adjusted to differences and

ironies present in the work environment. In the long run, they gain a depth of readiness needed

for their future professional lives.

According to Carole Unter (2015), Personally, I like meeting people. Talking to people is fun. It’s

great to hear new stories and ideas. I enjoy that feeling of connection that happens when you’re

having a good conversation. New people bring new perspectives, and that’s almost always

valuable or at least entertaining.

According to Terry Schmitz (2019) success in the workplace is not just determined by who

works the hardest or does the “best job”. Technical skills and knowledge are useful, but being

able to build relationships with people is critical to succeeding in the workplace. Social skills are
what enable people to talk to and connect with others. People that are able to form these

connections increase their success in their job.

among coworkers and the work will not be that hard for them if they apply at the same or related
