Knowledge, Skills and Attitude of the OJT Performance of THM Students

This study was conducted from March 2024 to March 2026 to examine and determine the level of knowledge, skills, and attitude of students as influenced by the OJT training program. Respondents of the study were seventy-nine (79) students of Tourism and Hospitality Management who enrolled in academic year 2024–2025 and academic year 2025–2026 of Capiz State University – Sigma Satellite College. The data were gathered using the validated researcher-made survey questionnaire. The statistical tools used for analyzing the data were weighted mean, rank, standard deviation, T-test, and Pearson r. The hypotheses were tested at 0.05% level of significance. The study found out that the students had “very high” influenced knowledge, skills, and attitudes. They acquired more information in addition to what they had already learned during their classroom discussion. It also explains that the skills of the students become more productive as they become used to the different tasks while they are having the program. The training influences the student’s skill in finishing the assignment given in a more accurate way in a short period. The attitude helps an individual to influence their skills and knowledge. The training helps the students to be more optimistic and provides students with being more confident while doing their tasks during the OJT program. Another significant finding of the study was the significant difference and significant relationship that existed in the OJT program among the levels of influenced knowledge, influenced skills, and influenced attitude of students.
