Can you guarantee a work placement?

Due to market demand, professional placements can't be guaranteed to all eligible students. Host organisations offer roles at particular times depending on projected needs. 

There are significant benefits to completing a professional placement, including:

  • Gaining industry experience before graduation
  • Building professional networks
  • Enhancing your CV and employability
  • Earning academic credit

Even if a placement isn't guaranteed, we strongly encourage you to consider the program and submit your registration of interest.
