Abstract

This internship report has been developed after the internee going through internship training from Pallisa Town Council the internee was exposed to a number of day-to-day practical works carried out in the Administration department. The internee was involved in preparing the office, organizing files writing reports, monitoring government programs like PDM, SAGE, UWEP, YLP. among others. During the internees industrial training at Pallisa Town Council, the internee learnt a lot of new things which she had not acquired in class like revenue mobilization using IRAS, discussing budgets in local government, council sittings, loan application processes, profiling PDM beneficiaries and many more. Much as there were a lot of new things learnt, there were also some challenges the internee faced like: Rampant power failure, lack of lunch, inadequate facilities of information technology system, inadequate safe drinking water facilities and poor sanitation at the place of convenience which were solved by hiring personal laptops, providing lunch and drinking water by ourselves and personal cleaning of the different places at Pallisa town council. However, internship is a very educative exercise especially when the training is done in Pallisa Town Council. This is therefore to encourage Busitema University to always advise students to apply for their internship to Pallisa Town Council.
