Vocational placement:

• As part of this course you’ll need to complete a supervised work placement with a community organisation, giving you the chance to apply what you’ve learned in real settings. You’ll support day-to-day activities, assist clients, and develop practical skills that will help you start your career in community services while building confidence, networks, and experience. Placement is normally unpaid but can be completed as part of normal paid employment if the role and tasks are relevant.
