National Gallery of Victoria Work Experience Program 2025
Open date: August 8, 2024
Closing date: October 1, 2024
The National Gallery of Victoria offers work experience placements for secondary school students. Placements are based with the NGV Learn Team and where possible with other Departments. Work experience in any one facet of the NGV cannot be guaranteed. Unfortunately, numbers are limited, and we cannot guarantee a placement for all applicants. For this reason, we strongly recommend students having other work experience placement options.
The NGV offers work experience during the following week in 2025: Monday 23 – Friday 27 June 2025
Please ensure that you approach your school prior to submitting your application as we are unable to accommodate placements outside the above week. It is important to note placements occur during school term time.
Applications for 2025 Work Experience placements are now open and will close 5pm, 1 September 2024.
All applicants will be notified by mid-November.
Victorian Parliament Work Experience Program 2025
Expressions of interest to complete a work experience placement at the Parliament of Victoria in terms 1 and 2, 2025 are now open. Please encourage interested students to visit our website and lodge an expression of interest via the online link: https://www.parliament.vic.gov.au/teach-and-learn/work-experience/
Students can choose between two programs, Sitting and Services, and placements are open to students in Victorian schools who are residents of Victoria, and are 15 years or over at the time of the placement. We endeavour to choose students from a mixture of government, independent, and Catholic schools, from metropolitan and regional areas, and of all gender identities.
Parliamentary Sitting placements provide the opportunity to see the law-making process up close. Students will go behind the scenes with the staff who directly support Parliament sittings, to get a deeper understanding of our democratic processes.
Parliamentary Services placements offer a variety of opportunities that can be matched with a broad range of student interests and career goals, including business operations, facilities management and maintenance, broadcast (Hansard), and hospitality (kitchen).
If you are successful in applying for this program, please ensure that you advise Ms Keating.
