Work Placement

Why is a Work Placement Required?

Work placement is required to ensure that the student is able to demonstrate and apply what he or she has learnt in an industry context. Work placement ensures the relevance of learning and assessment tasks and helps to produce graduates who are job ready and thereby increase employment opportunities.

Work placement also provides insight into particular job roles and responsibilities within an industry context. The student can find out if this is the right industry for them and whether they are right for this industry.

Workplace assessments and training must be undertaken in workplace organisations that are suitable for the course. The student must be under the direction of an appropriately qualified and experienced supervisor. The workplace assessments will be conducted by Cengage Education Workplace Assessors, who will contact both the workplace organisation and the student to arrange mutually convenient times to conduct the workplace assessments.

Work Placement Terms and Conditions

Cengage Education will assist students to identify work placement opportunities in an appropriate organisation however, it is the responsibility of the student to find and complete the work placement. In the event that the student has previously arranged a work placement Cengage Education will check the suitability of this arrangement. Cengage Education will make reasonable efforts to organise for assessment to be conducted in the workplace however, the student may be required to attend assessment events at other locations. If the student does not complete a mandatory work placement within the duration of the course Cengage Education is not permitted to issue the qualification.

Australian Workplace

This is a government accredited course that meets the requirements of the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) therefore you will need to complete this part of your studies in an Australian workplace.

Insurance

Cengage Education is pleased to offer our students insurance cover for any mandatory work placement they undertake as part of their course. Known as Volunteer Insurance, the policy covers ‘Personal Accidents’ in the workplace, and will help put employers’ minds at ease for the duration of the work placement.
