During the internship, Nuwahoora was given a chance to visit different departments from where he attained lots of hands-on skills.

"I learned a lot during my internship including drafting, Instituting a case.  I also learned to write contracts."

 "I learned many things through my Supervisor. I really thank her so much."

Nuwahoora describes his Interniship as the best of the kind.

"My internship experience was the best of its kind because the staff and working environment at the National Enterprise Corporation (NEC) UPDF was supportive to me."

"I experienced a lot, from handling affairs like management, quorum, procedural matters, code of conduct at work, and Discipline at the workplace.  I learned skills to do with good customer care while handling clients."

"I want to take this opportunity to thank the management of National Enterprise Corporation for allowing me to learn from their qualified personnel. These include Mr. Mukombozi Daniel (Corporation Secretary), Mrs. Akantorana Kash (Litigation Manager and the same time my Supervisor, Mr. Rwabwiizi Francis- Legal Officer, Ms. Anna(Secretary).
