South West Connect recruits local businesses to host Year 11 and 12 students who are required to complete a minimum of 35 hours of work placement as part of their Vocational Education & Training (VET) course. Work Placement is NOT the same as Work Experience.
These students are already studying an industry specific qualification, and work placement is a compulsory component of their qualification. The students are fully insured by the relevant education sector and are expected to conduct themselves like an entry level employee throughout their placement.
