Program Guidelines for Work Placement Coordination

A complete list of NSW Work Placement Coordination providers is located here.

This site is regularly updated to ensure accurate information is available for all Work Placement Coordination providers.

Work placement is a planned opportunity in a quality host workplace that enables senior school students studying particular industry-based courses to practise and develop their industry competencies and their employability skills in a vibrant real work context.

Work placement is a mandatory component of twelve industry-based vocational education and training (VET) courses that students can choose as part of their studies for the NSW Higher School Certificate.
