Powering the Future of SIWES Management at University of Lagos

Overview

Koonage partnered with the University of Lagos to support the modernization of its Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) administration through the development of the UNILAG-INTERN platform.

The initiative combines purpose-built software with reliable infrastructure to create a secure, scalable system capable of supporting the University's industrial training operations.

The Challenge

Managing industrial training across a large university involves coordinating thousands of students, academic departments, supervisors, and industry partners.

Traditional processes often depend on fragmented communication, manual documentation, and multiple disconnected systems, resulting in delays, limited visibility, and increased administrative workload.

The University sought a digital solution that would centralize these processes while improving efficiency, transparency, and user experience.

Our Solution

Koonage designed and developed the UNILAG-INTRN platform as a comprehensive digital ecosystem for SIWES management.

The platform enables institutions to manage the entire industrial training lifecycle from a single environment, including student registration, placement coordination, supervisor engagement, progress tracking, document management, and reporting.

To support long-term reliability and performance, Koonage also provided the server infrastructure that powers the platform, ensuring a stable foundation for current operations and future growth.

Expected Impact

The platform is positioned to transform industrial training administration by:

* Digitizing SIWES workflows * Reducing manual administrative processes * Improving collaboration between students, supervisors, and employers * Increasing operational visibility through centralized data * Supporting secure and scalable institutional growth
