Abstract:
Field attachment training study process helps students to achieve more practical approach of learning. This study largely consists of applying the concepts learnt theoretically in class into reality through the exposure and real-life experience. I did my Industrial training within Queen Elizabeth National Park (QENPA) for a period of two (2) months. I dealt in a number of departments and these include; Law enforcement and operations department, Ecological Monitoring and Research department, Conservation Education department, Tourism and Hospitality department, Accounts and administration department, Engineering and estates management department. All these were aimed at impacting practical skills and knowledge that includes; communication skills, tour guiding skills, customer care, being flexible, data analysis and collection, community sensitization, monitoring population and health of wildlife. However, during the field work process, I happened to face some challenges which included lack of field gadgets, limited transport means, language and poor communication networks. Some reference books used in compiling this report have been quoted and more to that, appendices, photographs have been attached hence making this report comprehensive and covering all activities done in the period given above within the attachment area.
