CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND
As per Bachelor of Computer Application (BCA) requirements under Tribhuvan University, the
students are required to go through an internship to gain career related experiences in real
organizational setting. Therefore, this report has been prepared as per requirement
for the partial fulfillment for the degree of BCA.
Internships are formal programs designed to provide practical experience in real world
environment to students who are new to field. Internships help to build competent
resume by giving students visible work experience. Although colleges and universities assist
students in finding the right Internship programs, it is the responsibility of the would-be interns
to carefully examine internship programs, and see if those programs actually offer the training
they need.
There is no standardized duration for how long an Internship program lasts but t y p i c a l l y a n
Internship is the period of three to twelve months. During
t h i s period interns have the opportunity to explore their field of interest, find out what future
they are diving and whether or not their skill sets match their path of career.
Internship program provides a distinct platform to interns to build a solid
foundation to their career, understand the workplace culture, gain vital work-related
experience, develop relevant skills, and also presents the opportunity to find permanent
employment in the host company.

Some of the major benefits of Internship program to students include:

 Students can learn about the workplace culture and gain much needed
work experience.
 Student can finally experience practical implementation of things they
have been learning in the classroom
 Students can build a strong foundation that will bolster their career
 Good performance in the internship program can secure
p e r m a n e n t employment with the host company
 Some internship programs are paid programs meaning students
c a n e a r n money while they get necessary exposure.
To fulfill those needs, I was involved in CEAD Nepal. This report consists of
information regarding the activities conducted in
internship period. This approach helps students to be aware of the working environment before
actually start to work in any organization. Since, learning is a great e x p e r i e n c e o n e c a n
