It will also positively impact interns and give them confidence given that they have acquired all necessary support to enhance quality education,\u201d he said.  <\/p>\n<p>One of trainers, Prof. Wenceslas Nzabalirwa has stressed that teaching profession needs special attention as it is considered the foundation for intellectual development.    <\/p>\n<p>\u201cTeaching profession should be prepared enough like health workers are trained and acquainted with hands on skills early without necessary conduct internship at the completion of studies.  Teaching is a profession that requires one to attend school and enough preparation for candidates to carry out their duties smoothly,\u201d he said.  <\/p>\n<p>Pascasie Nyirahabimana, a lecturer of Physics at UR-CE has explained that the training capacitates them to improve teaching methodologies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are gaps in quality education whereby students fail to familiarize with working environment and put into practice what they learnt.
