Student Work Placement

Students must be willing to undertake vocational placement. Vocational placement provides students with the opportunity to apply skills and knowledge in real scenarios. It is a requirement of this qualification that students undertake a minimum of 40 complete service periods[1] of unpaid vocational placement[2].

The college organises students’ vocational placement locations. However, students can select their own. The college will assess the suitability of the placement location prior to the students commencing their vocational placement. Students will also be given a vocational logbook, which they must complete during their placement hours. All students must be willing to undertake placement in an operational business or operational hospitality environment.

Students will be required to arrange, at their own expense, transportation to and from their placement facility. Should students be required to travel interstate for placement, the college will cover the cost of all interstate travel and accommodation during the placement; however, students will be required to organise their own local travel to and from these facilities.

Students will be notified of their placement details prior to commencing vocational placement. Students are required to organise their own travel to and from these facilities and may be required to undertake placement anywhere within Australia.
