SCHEDULE OF PRACTICAL TRAINING
2.1 INTRODUCTION ON SCHEDULE OF PRACTICAL TRAINING
One of the criteria in order to be honor with first degree in Bachelor of Corporate Administration
(Hons) AM225, I need to complete five weeks of my practical training ordered by my faculty.
During that moment, I have been assigned by my supervisor, Madam Qiesty Zarina binti
Ghazali, the Senior Assistant Registrar in University of Selangor with lots of challenging task.
However, I am so proud of myself since I can complete those entire tasks without help from
another co-worker much and all the tasks given by her was perfectly followed scope of task
distributed by my faculty. The example of the area in which University and Faculty expects
practical training to be provided and achieve are in the area of services, administration, counter
services, data processing, outdoor task, public relation, financial, personnel, meeting and
marketing.
Even though the task may be different and can be modified whichever necessary and suitable
based on the task incurred by department but my supervisor did not assigned me with another
scope of task. This is because she believed that the scope of task given by faculty are perfectly
suitable and meet with my course and also in the scope of work in Examination Unit too.
For more narrow view, all my daily practical training tasks have been summarize according the
number of week as shown in the next section.

CHAPTER 3
ANALYSIS
3.1 INTRODUCTION
Reviewing about my five weeks of practical training in Examination Unit, the most tasks that
have been assigned to me is at counter services where service can be define as deeds,
processes and performances2. Working in the front line for sure has trained me on how to
communicate with people in clear, polite and confident way and selecting the right method of
communication will help me to achieve my aim of being clear, polite and courtesy besides on
how to deal with customers questions and comments. So, all these shows that the importance
of the customers.
A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are
dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an
outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is
doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.- Mahatma Ghandi
Besides that, I also have learn on how to greet customers warmly, how to be more patient in
handling different type of customers as well as how to be ethical staff in counter services.
Discussing about on how to be ethical staff in counter services, ethics in Islam can referred as a
reflection of good values whether in behavior, action, thinking or even heart. So, as a Muslim, I
have been demanded to follow the Islam obligations regarding this matter and also the core
Valarie A. Zeithaml and Mary Jo Bitner, Service Marketing, New York: McGraw-Hill,1996.p.5
24
values govern by University of Selangor as what has been highlighted in Chapter Two. Quoted
from Holy Quran:
And March forth toward forgiveness from your Lord, and for Paradise as wide as are the
heavens and the earth, prepared for the pious. Those who spend (in the way of God) in
prosperity and in adversity, who repress anger, and who pardon people; verily, God loves the
doers of the good deeds. - Quran 3:133
Frankly speaking, this chapter will bring us to the various perspectives on counter services and
some of the theories will be highlighted. Then, for sure all those theories will be adapted to the
real situation that happens in Examination Units counter.
the entire doctor does give services in providing the adequate treatment to the patient
accordingly and in overcoming the factor of patients illness.
Same goes to Examination Unit, it does provide services to their customers which are consist of
students, lecturers as well as another party such as parents or guidance of the students and for
sure it has its own core product. Core product of Examination Unit is providing the information
regarding all matter arise on examination process which we can be found on its main function
and objective such as the staff providing the students with final examinations timetable. The
main function and objective of Examination Unit are covering all the matters before, during and
after the final examination take place as what has been clearly disclosed in Chapter Two
previously.
Supplementary services
In servicing the core product to the waiting customers and to make the service to be delivered
efficiently, core product must be accompanied by a variety of other service-related activities
which is known as supplementary services. These services can enlarge the core product,
facilitating its use and enhancing its value. At the same time, by searching for the competitive
advantage, it can give some benefits to supplementary services and implicitly can improve the
level of service quality provided by the service provider. For example, core product of Malaysia
Airline is by meeting the demand in moving the passenger from one place to another. Then, in
providing this core services, Malaysia Airlines can include some supplementary services in
increasing their level of performance such as providing the food services on the airplane before
arrive to the right destination.
Adapting to the real situation took place in Examination Unit counter, staffs have adding some
supplementary services while providing their core product to students. For example, front-line
26
staff does sharing on some tips and give some personal advice to students on how to study
smart for their final examination and cope with their busy life style. For sure this kind of
supplementary services can help the students to enjoy the effectiveness of the services
provided by Examination Unit since it does not show Examination Unit as a formal unit only but
it is more to personal contact with students too.
Delivery processes
After discussing about core product and supplementary services, another component of service
concept is delivery process. The service does not achieve its quality if the service provider does
have problem in its delivery process no matter how well its core product and supplementary
services are. For example, after departure, Malaysia Airlines does prolong the time of arrival
from three hours to seven hours due to some error done by aerospace engineer while examine,
checking and overhaul the airplane. Thus, Malaysia Airlines must try to overcome this matter in
order to achieve the standard quality of services.
Similar situation also crucially important to be adapted in Examination Unit counter since how
long delivery lasts can make sense to the students. Based on my observation, the staffs are
really concern about the delivery process. For example, the time taken for the staff to deliver the
academic transcript to the students at the counter is about ten minutes. However, in the real
situation, staffs can deliver the output to students within seven to eight minutes only. Thus, this
efficiency can give some happiness and satisfaction to the students.
So, frankly speaking there are three important dimensions that took place in designing service
concept and all service providers including Examination Unit counter should have all these.
Then, it is not enough for them to only have it but they are also required to perfectly elaborate
what are their core products, supplementary services that they might have as well as about their
27
delivery process so that they can increase their chances in maximizing their customers
satisfaction and loyalty.
information needed, they will give it to the customers through the middle person who is the front
liner. However, if the staff behind the counter cannot solve the customers matter at the first
place, the same process will be repeated until the problem solved. Simpler view of counter
service concept is shown below.

student will gone through this process when they are completing their study. So for sure this
requesting process has become the major and main matter in counter service.
During this process, the students may require filling in the Request for Transcript Form (bup /
student 05) and need to follow the Request of Transcript Form Flow Chart.

form to those particular students as well as give some instruction and advice on how to fill in the
form.
Then, after the students get the approval from the related department, they might come again to
Examination Unit counter to submit the form to the staff at the counter. Then, as the middle
person, the staff at the counter will give the form to the staff behind the counter in order to
complete the process. The co-worker will check the validity of that form and if there is no
mistake and the form has been completed perfectly by the students, he or she will start to
prepare that particular students transcript.
Later, after completing the students transcript, he or she will pass it to the staff at the counter so
that finish product can be given to the students which are their customers. So that is how the
requesting process of transcript involved in the counter service in Examination Unit.
Then, when asking to adapt service quality to the service provided in Examination Unit counter
during my practical training, as what I have mentioned above, it is something difficult for me to
evaluate whether Examination Unit is fully utilize and fulfill the concept of service quality or not
since the service provided by the staff to their various kind of customers is invisible. However, I
am trying to evaluate it through Gaps Model that will be discussing in the next session. By using
that model, it will make us easier to evaluate the service quality.

Thus, Examination Unit might have to use SERVQUAL Dimension in order for that unit to

to achieve more perfect characteristics.

Other than observing what are the difference between what customers expected and what they
perceived was delivered, this model also allow us to identify and correct service quality
problems that happen in Examination Unit counter. However, the corrective action on service
quality as well as the method to narrow the gaps will be discussed perfectly in Chapter Four.

Word of servuction is derived from combination of two terms which are service and production.
The Servuction system is the part of the service organizations physical environment that is
visible to and experienced by a customer. Next, other than the previous theory and models, we
also can use this servuction system in order for us to have a clearer view regarding the counter
services provided in Examination Unit counter.
Servuction system is comprises of two parts which are the one that visible to the customers and
the other part is not. The part which is visible to the customers is consisting of three elements
which are inanimate environment, contact personnel and also the other customers. Then,
invisible part is consisting of one element which is technical core.
Visible Part
Inanimate environment or Servicescape consist of all nonliving features that exist during the
service process happen. For example are the physical appearances of Examination Unit, notice
board, waiting corner, stationeries provided, flooring, lighting, clothes worn by front line staff and
furnishing. It is vital for the service provider to keep all these servicescapes in a perfect
condition since the physical state of all these items can give impact on their service
performance. Let say the staff worn untidy clothes, for sure it might bring some negative
perceptions from students. For example, the students might think that staff is not well motivated
to work and then cannot perform well in their job.
The next element of visible part of counter services is contact personnel or service provider. In a
simple word, contact personnel is the staff who have close interaction with the customers either
face to face or through another kind of communication channel such as telephone and email.
Then, since the service has the inseparability characteristic which is lack of separation between
41
customers and contact personnel, for sure service provider might adapt some interpersonal skill
while applying their technical skill.
Adapting this element to Examination Unit counter, for sure the contact personnel are that staffs
who works in frontline, including me. We are struggling to fulfilling the customers needed such
as in all the matter related to students final examinations including results, examination venue,
informing the latest information to examination secretariat and many interactions-or moment of
truth-that has to be managed. Thus, high interpersonal skills for sure have been fully adapted
while performing our job.
Then, discussing about other customers, it can be define as the another person who are using
or getting services from services provider other than that particular person. For example, Mr. Ali
is always getting a treatment from Hudson General Hospital instead thousand of other patients
too. Thus, other patients might give some influence to perceptions of Mr. Alis towards the level
of service quality provided by the hospital. If Mr. Ali does listen to the other patients nagging
after experiencing a bad treatment from the doctor, Mr. Ali for sure will view the same points too
but the vice versa might happen if Mr. Ali does listen to some acknowledgement from recovered
patient.
Same situation also take place in Examination Unit. One particular student might listen to the
other students point of view towards Examination Units staff or performance and this will give
some impact to his or her perception towards this unit either positive or negative.
Invisible Part
While the visible components can be termed as front office or front-stage, then the invisible
components can be termed as back office or backstage. As what has been explain
42
previously, the front line also needs most help and cooperation from the co-worker behind the
counter in preparing the data and information needed by the customers as well as to solve the
unsettled matter arise as well as need support from systems. The invisible organization and
systems reflect the regulations, rules, and processes upon which the organization is based.
More about technical core, it is where the inputs are processed and the elements of the service
product are created. It is backstage and invisible to the customer such as the kitchen of the
restaurant or work done by aerospace engineering in workshop. Take the example in
Examination Unit, it is the back office where lots of computer with the latest software are
belongs to and it is a place where the backstage staff processed the data and information of
examination and other related matter.
So, by adapting this Servuction System into counter service, for sure we will get a better view
regarding counter service. Also by knowing the parties and matter involved can shows all
interactions that make up a typical customer experience in a high-contact service.

CHAPTER 4
RECOMMENDATIONS
4.1 INTRODUCTION
Under this chapter, we would like to discuss on several strengths and weaknesses of counter
services derive from SWOT Analysis and also to discuss some recommendations that
Examination Unit might implement in order to improve their service performances and
service quality as well as to increase students satisfaction since that group stand as the
majority of their customers.
SWOT Analysis: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats
A SWOT Analysis identifies an organizations internal strengths and weaknesses as well as
used to identify the external organizations treats and opportunities. The aim of this analysis
is to reveal competitive advantages, analyze prospects, prepare for problems and allow for
development of contingency plans.
Key:
Strengths
Opportunities
Weaknesses
Treats
Internal
External
However, there are only two elements will be discuss in the purpose of meeting the guideline
for Practical Training Report ADS 666 provided by the faculty which are strengths and
44
weaknesses. Details regarding these two will be explained in the next subtopic under this
chapter.
45
Since all these skills are necessary for the staff to have, then it might be a problem
while providing the services in the counter if they does not expert on it. Not all the
company does train their front-line staff in concurring both interpersonal and technical
skill.
46
Adapting this situation in Examination Unit, most of the staff does not have enough
technical skill and interpersonal skills. Based on my observation, some of the staff
does not treat students well while having conversation with them besides quite slow
while using the computer. Thus, not adapting interpersonal skill while having
conversation and entertain customer besides does not good in processing the task
might show some weaknesses of counter service in this unit.
Based on my observation, this kind of problem often happen to Examination Unit staff
especially during peak hour from 11.00 am to 4.00 pm. Most of the staff does not able
to stand with variety response from the students which sometimes they do ask some
nonsense question. Thus, staffs are tend to become stress and depress besides
cannot control their negative emotion by arguing with the students. However, this kind
of weakness can be overcome if they do have high emotional control and should be
settle with high professionalism.
As discuss above, these three are the counter service weaknesses that we can find out.
However, all these need to be overcome by the company in order for them to gain more trust
47
from their customer. The solution to overcoming these weaknesses will be discussed in
subtopic 4.4.1 below.
48
capacity in order to meet the demand from the number of their customer such as
front-line staff or labor.
Labor is a key element of productive capacity in all high-contact services and many
low-contact ones. If not enough staff are on duty, customers might be kept waiting or
service become rushed. Professional services are especially dependent on highly
skilled staff to create high value-added, information-based output4.
Thus, if company are able to meet the demand of increasing number of customer and
also able to increase their capacity in providing enough front-line staff, then level of
satisfaction will be turning up and might bring customer closer to their company.

on how to cope with pressure from customers. If not, they will use a variety of ways to
resist the stress emotional labor5.
It is vital for all companies to turn their weaknesses into strengths in order to make them stay
competitive with other rival company. Then, management might use all these suggested
recommendation in order for them to overcome the weaknesses of Examination Unit as well
as increasing the management quality in University of Selangor. Then, indirectly it will make
the students to satisfy with this university besides can increase society trust towards them.

All these step are sometimes not being done once but might be repeated continuously by the
management until they are able to find the perfect solution. However, in my opinion in the
case of delaying of delivery process in Examination Unit, uninstalling outdated software and
replacing it by installing the new updated and latest software might be the most effective
solution. This is because based on my experience in handling academic transcript process,
only the outdated software has become major contribution to the delaying of the process.
Other factors do running well. The Chief of Examination Unit is always there to put her sign
on the finished academic transcript, printing machine are working well and staffs are also
performing their task perfectly.

CHAPTER 5
CONCLUSION
Chapter One
Under Chapter One, for Introduction of the organization, I have explained on the background
of University of Selangor such as when University of Selangor has been established, main
factor that encouraging the state of Selangor to establish this university and also some
information pertaining this university first intake of its students.
Next, mission and vision also have well elaborated. Their mission is committed to provide
excellent and conducive learning environment to develop competent, upright and ethical
professionals and scholars. Then, the vision is to be a renowned university that nurtures
professionals and scholars with high moral and ethical values.
Another element such as organization structure and core business of the organization also
has been highlighted.
Besides that, other relevant information pertaining to University of Selangor has been
disclosed under this chapter which is regarding the objective and function of Examination
Unit since I have been assigned to carry out my practical training in that unit.
At the same time, organizational structure had been disclosed too for the purpose of knowing
the top management of this university.
Chapter Two
In completing Chapter Two, Schedule of practical training, I have tabulated my daily training
extracted from the Log Book.
58
However, for initial understanding, I have explained some information on that matter under
the introduction of Chapter Two. Refreshing back the history, I have been assigned by my
supervisor, Madam Qiesty Zarina binti Ghazali, the Senior Assistant Registrar in University of
Selangor with lots of challenging task. However, I am so proud of myself since I can
complete those entire tasks.
Other than that, I also provide with some details on my practical training date in Table One.
As what I have explained in Chapter Two, I have started my five weeks practical training on
July 22nd 2013 and finished it on October 30 th 2013.
Next, I also make some description regarding jobs and tasks that has been executed by me
throughout my practical training starting from week one until week five. As what has been
summarized in the Table One, it is the entire task that I have been assigned to during my five
weeks of practical training.
Chapter Three
In completing Chapter Three, I have made some analysis on one area of task assigned to
me which is counter service. I have come out with a few facts such as Designing Service
Concept since some experienced service marketers recognize the need to take holistic view
of the entire performance they want customers to experience and concerning on that, I am
eager to come out with that theory in my report.
Under Chapter Three, I am also give some definition of counter service concept. Three
different levels of counter service concept are the customer level, service at the counter and
support service. Other than that, for more clear view, I have come out with the example of
counter service scenario that happen in Examination Unit counter service which is Request
of Transcript Form Flow Chart.
59
Then, to make my report more trusted, I have elaborate on some valid theories from some
expertise regarding service area such as Dimensions of Servqual and Identifying Service
Quality Problems are adapted from study carry out by A. Parasuraman. Then, Servuction
System is adapted from Pierre Eiglier.
Chapter Four
After begin by explaining some fact in the introduction for Chapter Four Recommendations, I
am then proceeded to explain some strengths and weaknesses of counter services.
Then, I am also come out with some solution to overcoming problem and weaknesses of
counter services. It is vital for all service providers or company to minimize their counter
services weaknesses and any other problem arise since it can lead to dissatisfaction of their
customer. Then, in a long term, it will bring negative effect to their business as well as reduce
customers loyalty, wealth and return of the company.
The example of solutions suggested are including method to overcoming the weaknesses of
counter services and how to narrow the gaps. It is important to narrow the gap since it can be
use as a tool to examine and analyze between customers expectation and our actual
services.
Other those two, another solution also has been disclosed. It is a solution regarding process
improvement.
