“I think the rotation of students between each exhibitor was an excellent idea as it gave them each a great opportunity to speak with every exhibitor that attended, also how it was broken up with fun activities. Students seemed more engaged and weren't afraid to ask questions.” - Yvonne, Apprenticeship Support Australia

BECOME A WORK PLACEMENT HOST EMPLOYER

South West Connect recruits local businesses to act as hosts for students needing 35 hours of workplacement for their Vocational Education & Training (VET) course. Work placement is NOT work experience.
These students are already studying an industry qualification and their work placement is compulsory. The students are insured by the relevant education sector and are expected to behave as an entry level employee.
If you would like to enquire about becoming a host employer please contact us.
