WORKSHOPS OR CONSTRUCTIONS
So many people are like, I want to use this IT period to learn “work”. In this case, you could look for any opening related to what you want to learn around.
You could go to shops where repairs of electrical and electronic goods are done, you could also decide to do your training in a Mechanic workshop.
For those interested in construction, you could go to sites where massive building projects are being carried out or simply volunteer to join those doing road construction. Bridge construction is also there.
The truth of the matter is that there are 101 places where you do workshop practice or construction work. just find a placement best fit for you and stick to it.
INSTITUTIONS
The term “Institution” is very broad. You could either go for teaching practice in schools or do your internship in other areas as long as the institution is concerned. An institution can be public, educational, or charitable.
You can even do internships in Local Government areas and Political/State offices in your State of Origin.
