The study shows that the enterprises has lack of awareness about the implementation of cooperative training which leads stakeholders has no willingness to cooperate even if there is a good effort by the college in the implementation the of cooperative training. Mainly trainees are engaged with machines only to take practice by observation. Organization takes priority to safe machines and to take care of materials and equipments than the quality of cooperative training for trainees. The other point that organization complain is that even if trainees will come with their unit of competencies to take practical training but not enough.
