Work experience is the short-term placement of students with employers to provide insights into the industry and the workplace in which they are located. Students are encouraged to organise their own work experience placement early so that they have the greatest chance of securing their place of choice.

It provides students with the valuable opportunity to:

Develop employability skills.
Explore possible career options.
Understand employer expectations.
Increase their self-understanding, maturity, independence, and self-confidence.
