Abstract

Nowadays, the preparing for work readiness before graduation is so far confronting issues for an enormous bit of the universities. Mainly, graduates are not skilled and competence in the workplace. To resolve these difficulties towards outcome-based education (OBE), it is focused on the work-based learning (WBL) and built the linkage between students, instructors and industries. Actually, if the instructors do not consider the readiness of the work related respective courses, it will not be able to find a readiness way for students towards continual quality improvement (CQI).  In this research, it is proposed for insights about the essential measures to set up the work readiness capacities for understudies. The primary research challenge is examined trends, cooperation and possibilities of the linkage among academic and industry in Myanmar. The results of the a case study are likewise inspected about WBL steps that assist understudies with being better arranged to settle on better decisions and be arranged for their internships. To survey the proposed commitments, this discussion is illustrated with models from multidisciplinary studies, which explore the understudies’ genuine issues. The effectiveness of this case study can provide a bridge between academic and industry to train competence skills with a taste of work in the classroom to improve student's work readiness.
