“In its simplest form, experiential learning means learning from experience or learning by doing. Experiential education first immerses learners in an experience and then encourages reflection about the experience to develop new skills, new attitudes, or new ways of thinking.” (Lewis and Williams, 1994)
2ORGANISATIONAL
BACKGROUND AND STRUCTURE
I choose MNZWAJA Kemaman Branch as a place to gain my
experience because MNZWAJA is one of the industries that is
collaborating with Politeknik Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah (POLISAS). It was an established Chartered Accounting firm where the main office is in Kuantan, Pahang. MNZWAJA is one of the firms who has
a good relationship with POLISAS and had contributed a lot in
giving talks and seminars to the students. They always involved the student’s activities in POLISAS. I am proud to be part of this firm for only 2 months starting from 3rd July until 10th September 2017.
