My significant and enlightening experience happened during the 24 weeks of industrial training at Majlis Perbandaran Port Dickson (MPPD) at Port Dickson. As I needed to undergo industrial training, I prepared a simple resume for the employers, and I have prepared all of the skills that a company will look for in an intern. I am majoring in Marketing, and I worked as a trainee under procurement, asset and store management division or Bahagian Perolehan, Pengurusan, Aset dan Stor (BPAS). This report was completed during my 24 weeks of industrial training. During this time, I learned and experienced numerous things about the organization. Most of the experiences that I gathered deepen my understanding but also honed my communication, teamwork and problem-solving skills. Throughout the training, I conducted a SWOT analysis for MPPD. SWOT analysis consists of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats faces by the organization. This organization's strengths are systematic management, high skilled workers, and good working environment. It is crucial since it contributes to the company's success and long-term survival in the industry. However, they have weaknesses which are manual filing and record keeping processes and lack of manpower. Aside from that, there are opportunities for MPPD. This company may take the advantages by effectively use the tourism potential. They also have strong economic development of Port Dickson which will bring them benefits. As this company are actively involves with the community, MPPD faces unsatisfactory image or perceptions from community and political instability as threats. This report will include a more comprehensive discussion and recommendations on the matter. For MGT666, students will be evaluated based on their internship report, presentation, industrial training log book, and the company’s evaluation of the student. Due to that, I have been careful and worked hard to complete this internship report following the guidelines provided.
