Abstract

This report is comprised of activities undertaken during my internship training at Nansana Municipal Council. Under finance and accounts department Offices. The internee was able to gain practical skills, experience and ability to transform theory learnt in class into practice. Chapter one covers the background of the field attachment, objectives of the field attachment, NMC background, mission statement, vision statement, main activities of the organization, Organizational Structure, Operations of the organization, Organizational culture and Gender in the organization. Chapter two basically consists of the Position occupied in an organization, Duties and responsibilities, Supervision levels and relationship with the supervisor, Work team and its composition, working relationship among team members, and Authority levels to the student. Chapter three consists of the practicability of the theories learnt at school or Relatedness of university’s taught programs to the field work, experiences and the skills acquired. Chapter four consists of the Conclusions and Recommendations to students, University and Organization. Irregularities in the cash book figures and bank statement figures could make balancing of the financial book more difficult and as well accountability became difficult. Learning how to use the Integrated Financial Management System (IFMS) took much more time since it was not taught in school. There was also power plug out which delayed the accomplishment of the activities that were assigned to be done.
