Abstract:

The study aimed to evaluate the skills of grade 12 Technical-Vocational-Livelihood Students of Santa Cruz North Cluster in work immersion during pandemic. The performance of work immersion students was assessed in terms of technical skills, interpersonal skills, entrepreneurial skills, and behavioral skills. The study also determined problems encountered by the work immersion students regarding resources needed, workplace, and execution of skills. An investigation of the relationship between work immersion performance and problems faced by students during work immersion was also included. The TVL teachers and a team of specialists in the skills were among those who responded. In addition, there were fifty-four (54) Grade 12 work immersion students who acted as study participants. The study revealed that the work immersion program is effective, showing that students gained good performance ratings in technical, interpersonal, behavioral, and entrepreneurial skills. Hence, communication skills and entrepreneurial skills are the least mastered skills among students. The study also found that students encountered problems in the workplace, resource requirements, and skill execution. There was no significant association between skills and challenges in work immersion during the pandemic, according to data obtained by the computed p-value. As a result, the researcher did not reject the null hypothesis. Thus, there are still skills to be developed and challenges to be solved. The objective of education is to prepare graduates for the tasks they will perform on the job. These findings will eventually teach the curious minds of work immersion students what kind of workplace they expect after graduation.
