A conclusion is the final section of a report in which you have to tie together what was
presented in the report, summing up the main point, explaining how the report was proven,
and successfully closing the discussion. The conclusion is often the most difficult part of a
report to write, and many students feel that they have nothing left to say after having
presented points proving their thesis in the body of the report. However, the conclusion is
often the part of the report that a reader remembers best, and thus must be effective to be
strong. Here you summarize the work you have done. Clearly re-state your contribution,
what you have learned, experienced and acquired. Relate these to what you have learned
in the organization.
