A post-placement class enables students to reflect on their overall Work Integrated Learning (WIL) experience. It is an opportunity for students to share their experiences and identify how they have enhanced their employability skills - and how this will be communicated to employers. Workplace/community supervisors will have the opportunity to celebrate successes and achievements with the students and members of the university community. |
