Abstract :
This study examined the militating factors against participation of internees in various internship training programmes in South-western Nigeria. Specifically, personal characteristics of participants and constraints against participation in internship programmes by internees were investigated. Multistage sampling technique was adopted to select two hundred and sixty seven internees from selected universities including Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta (FUNAB) and Ekiti State University (EKSU). Data were collected and analyzed using descriptive and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (PPMC). The findings indicate that the age of the respondents in all the universities sampled ranged between 24 and 25 years. More male than female respondents participated in the internship programme in most of the selected universities. Result of Correlation analysis (p<0.05) shows that there exist significant relationship between poor funding, supervision, coordination and participation in internship training programmes. It was concluded that adequate funding and proper preparations will go a long way to improve participation of internees in internship programmes.
