How to fill your SIWES logbook properly for Industrial Training

Creating a logbook entry for a student’s SIWES (Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme) experience will depend on the specific guidelines and requirements of the program, the industry the student is placed in, and the tasks the student has completed. However, I can provide you with a generic format for a logbook entry to give you an idea of how to structure it. Make sure to adapt this to your specific needs and guidelines.
